...speed of Giacobinid meteors is rather accurately known: 23 kilometers (14.3 miles) per second. Working theoretically, Whipple figured out what would happen to a very small particle hitting the thin top of the atmosphere at this speed.

The "critical size" that he calculated theoretically was close to the actual size of Landsberg's particles. This is strong evidence, said Whipple, that...
