Computer artwork of a meteorite above an icy ocean
Meteorite over ocean. Computer artwork of a meteorite about to land in an icy ocean. This is a large rocky meteorite, heated red hot by friction with the air. Meteorites are large meteors, fragments of interplanetary debris that enter the Earths atmosphere, which survive the passage through the atmosphere to the Earths surface. Very bright meteors or meteorites are known as fireballs. Most of the 500 meteorites which hit Earth each year land in the oceans. If a meteorite of this size hit an inhabited area, the effect would be catastrophic, with extensive damage and loss of life

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork showcases the sheer power and beauty of nature's celestial phenomena. In this mesmerizing image, a massive meteorite hurtles towards an icy ocean, its fiery red-hot exterior illuminating the night sky. The intense heat generated by friction with the Earth's atmosphere has transformed this rocky interplanetary debris into a blazing fireball. Meteorites like these are remnants from distant corners of our universe that manage to survive their journey through our planet's protective shield. With over 500 meteorites striking Earth each year, it is fascinating to learn that most find their final resting place in the vast expanses of our oceans. However, contemplating what would happen if such a colossal meteorite were to collide with an inhabited area brings forth sobering thoughts. The consequences would be catastrophic - widespread devastation and unimaginable loss of life. Through this stunning artwork, we are reminded of both the awe-inspiring wonders and potential dangers that exist beyond our world. It serves as a testament to humanity's curiosity about space and its continuous exploration into cosmology. Science Photo Library presents us with yet another masterpiece that seamlessly combines artistry and scientific knowledge. This print invites us to marvel at the magnificence of our universe while also acknowledging its capacity for destruction – a powerful reminder of how fragile life on Earth truly is.
