  1. Phase C has officially begun for Lunar Meteoroid Impacts Observer or #Lumio, ESA’s pioneering CubeSat technology demonstration mission dedicated to monitoring #meteoroid flashes on the far side of the #Moon: esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space - Lumio is entering the detailed design and implementation phase that will advance the mission toward flight readiness and a potential launch in 2028.

    Meteor, Meteorit und Meteoroid: Leuchtphänomen am Abendhimmel
    "
    "Am Abend des 8. März 2026 wurde kurz vor 19 Uhr in vielen Regionen in Deutschland eine Feuerkugel gesichtet.
    Meteoroide verglühen meistens in der Atmosphäre, gelegentlich erreichen Bruchstücke die Erdoberfläche. Dann spricht man von Meteoriten."

  4. "SA Museum investigates whether meteorite collided with car on regional highway" by ABC Australia - Driver and passenger were struck by glass shards when an object made a strong impact on their car north of Adelaide, South Australia. The driver says he probably would have crashed if the Tesla wasn't in self-driving mode. South Australian Museum scientists are examining it. Until then, remember lots of stuff hits cars. abc.net.au/news/2025-10-28/pot #asteroid #meteoroid #astronomy #space #LowFlyingRocks

    KI enthüllt: Meteoroiden-Einschläge lassen den Mars beben

    Meteoroiden-Einschläge verursachen seismische Wellen, die den Mars viel stärker und tiefer beben lassen als vorher angenommen: Dies zeigt eine Untersuchung mit Hilfe von KI, die von einem internationalen Forschungsteam unter Leitung der Uni Bern durchgeführt wurde. ..

    #Meteor 🌠, #meteorite 🪨 or #meteoroid 🌑? What about #asteroid 🪐? And don't forget: #comet ☄️ also exists.

    #Meteor 🌠, #Meteorit 🪨 oder #Meteoroid 🌑? Was ist mit #Asteroid 🪐? Und nicht vergessen: #Komet ☄️ gibt es auch.

  10. 📆 1972 The #meteoroid would have had a maximum mass of 570 tons and a length of 14 meters. Its closest approach to the Earth’s surface occurred 58 kilometers above #Montana. It is estimated that if the object had impacted the Earth, it would have had the destructive force of an atomic bomb 💥 listverse.com/2019/01/27/10-ti

  11. 🇷🇺 #TASS The Lunar dust monitor registered a #meteoroid ☄️ impact 🕳️ event, most likely as of the #Perseids #meteor shower. Capturing of two photo 📷 images increased the knowledge about the #spacecraft’s #orbit 🧭. tass.com/science/1662519

  12. #NASA 📆 2014 Every #day, Earth is bombarded with more than 100 tons of dust and sand-sized particles.

    About once a year, an automobile-sized 🚗 #asteroid ☄️ hits Earth's atmosphere, creates an impressive fireball, and burns up before reaching the surface.

    If a rocky #meteoroid larger than 25 meters but smaller than one kilometer were to hit #Earth 🌍, it would likely cause local #damage 💥 to the #impact area.

    Anything larger than one to two kilometers 📏 could have #worldwide effects. nasa.gov/mission_pages/asteroi
