摘要: Meteorites are being retrieved from the surface of our planet all time, number located falls at maximum in range 0.3 to 1.0 yr-1 (106 km2)-1. Using known flux meteorite parent bodies top atmosphere this paper reviews suggested ablation processes and predicts actual meteorites Earth. It is found that some 70 300 times what observed.
