Lithometeors are meteors that are observed in the atmosphere on the earth's surface or in the sky in the field of meteorology.[1] The name is derived from “litho”, ancient Greek λίθος [líthos] for “stone” (note: including in the sense of sand and dust), and “meteor”, from ancient Greek μετέωρος [metéōros], “floating in the air”.
