Oh, wow, a solar system model that's **so accurate** it's practically invisible! 🙄🔍 Because who wouldn't want to scroll endlessly through a barren wasteland of #whitespace just to find a speck of cosmic dust? 🌌✨

Cosmic dust (Planetary science 🪐)

Cosmic dust – also called extraterrestrial dust, space dust, or star dust – is dust that occurs in outer space or has fallen onto Earth. Most cosmic dust particles measure between a few molecules and 0.1 mm, such as micrometeoroids. Larger particles are called meteoroids. Cosmic dust can be further distinguished b...

Meteorites are valuable sources of information about the history and evolution of the solar system. However, humans unintentionally destroy this data by exposing the meteorites to air, water, and pollution. A new study estimates that more than 60 percent of meteorite cosmic dust has been lost due to weathering. The researchers urge for more preservation and protection of these precious rocks.
