give four description of meteor shower​

Sagot :

Answer:

A meteor is a space rock—or meteoroid—that enters Earth's atmosphere. As the space rock falls toward Earth, the resistance—or drag—of the air on the rock makes it extremely hot. What we see is a "shooting star." That bright streak is not actually the rock, but rather the glowing hot air as the hot rock zips through the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Answer:

It is a atmospheric phenomenon and a celestial event. The glowing streaks of a meteor shower may appear anywhere in the sky, but their "tails" all seem to point back to the same spot in the sky. That's because all the meteors are coming at us at the same angle, and as they get closer to Earth the effect of perspective makes them seem to get farther apart.A meteor shower occurs when the Earth passes through the trail of debris left by a comet or asteroid. Meteors can become visible as high as 120 kilometers above Earth. Meteors can give off various colors when they burn which is associated with their composition. Meteors that burn brighter than usual are called fireballs.
