Asteroids in the Distance

Rocks from space hit Earth every day. The larger the rock, the less often Earth is struck. Many kilograms of space dust fall to Earth daily, and larger bits appear initially as bright meteors. Baseball-sized rocks and ice-balls streak through our atmosphere daily, most evaporating quickly. Significant threats exist for rocks near 100 meters in diameter, which strike Earth roughly every 1000 years.
