How many tons of meteors fall on earth per day?

However, I can still find a lot of different estimates for how much stuff hits Earth each year, partly because different studies look at different size ranges, and all the procedures have errors. Estimates for the mass of material that falls on Earth each year range from 37,000-78,000 tons. read more

On the average, the weight of the earth increases 40 tons per day from meteors. Interestingly enough, the earth also loses 40 Tons of atmospheric gas, to outer space each day. read more

They also estimate between 36 and 166 meteorites larger than 10 grams fall to Earth per million square kilometers per year. Over the whole surface area of Earth, that translates to 18,000 to 84,000 meteorites bigger than 10 grams per year. But most meteorites are too small to actually fall all the way to the surface. read more

A few each day may be the size of a baseball or occasionally the size of a basketball. Once a week or so, the Earth is hit by a rock the size of a car, and once every few months, we get hit by something the size of a house. read more
