¿Qué es una estrella fugaz?
Si piensas que es una estrella, te equivocas. Lee la nota.
Las conocemos como estrellas, pero no lo son. Las estrellas fugaces son en realidad pedazos de roca y polvo de asteroides y cometas, las cuales arden y se desintegran en la atmósfera al acercarse a la Tierra a toda velocidad, aproximadamente a unos 80 kilómetros por segundo. Por cierto, a estos trozos de roca que no llegan a la superficie del planeta se les llama meteroides, y meteoritos a los que si se impactan.
