Meteors are more than just pretty lights in the sky. Since the majority of meteor-producing meteoroids originate from comets, they contain invaluable information about these objects not otherwise obtainable. ... One such possibility is the planet Mars. ... Taking into account the slower average speed of incoming material at the heliocentric distance of Mars from the Sun, a meteoroid of the same mass entering the martian atmosphere at 30km/sec would produce a meteor +0.5 mag fainter than at Earth. ...

... It turns out one possibility is a form of matter/energy invented by Einstein in the 1920s to make sure his equations of General Relativity did not predict the Expansion of the Universe. Although Einstein was willing to predict several things with his equations of General Relativity, he obviously thought an expanding Universe was too much, and so he invented the Cosmological Constant, which repels itself, and was meant to balance the force of gravity, and make the Universe static. ...
