Idiots "Meteors are NOT hot when they land on Earth When a meteor lands on Earth, it usually is not hot. It's usually warm. A meteor's great speed is enough to melt its outside layer, but any molten material will be quickly blown off (ablated), and the interior of the meteor doesn't have time to heat up because rocks are poor conductors of heat. Also, atmospheric drag can slow small meteors to terminal velocity by the time they hit the ground, giving them some time to cool down. "metors are the flashs in the sky, they dont reach the Surface of the earth, If a rock from space hits the Earth its a meteorite (sp?), of it burns up in space, its a meteor, and if its still in space, its a meteroid.No Digg, they are stupid in making that...
Oh no, look at the ad."Passion dot com members near [where you live]"and displaying three girls.But I don't think the girls live near where I am. I am in a small nation in Asia.

I bet the meteor that killed the dinosaurs was hot when it hit.It was probably just trying to avoid catching a cold.
