I hope so, because then we need do nothing. If they are indeed honey bound, we're in a bit of a bind. Comb manipulation would be too risky right now. The warm, fragile wax combs can break too easily, and we'd either have a sticky mess on our hands or, worse, a destroyed nursery.
When meteoroids intersect with Earth's atmosphere at night, they are likely to become visible as meteors. If meteoroids survive the entry through the atmosphere and reach Earth's surface, they are called meteorites. Meteorites are transformed in structure and chemistry by the heat of entry and force of impact.
The streak of light created by a meteoroid entering the Earth's  atmosphere is called a meteor. A meteorite is the remains of a  meteoroid that did not vaporize after enteriâ¦ng the Earth's  atmosphere. As a meteoroid encounters the Earth's atmosphere frictional heating begins at an altitude of 100 to 120 km.
