Confused about shooting starts and meteorites that we find

Hello,
I am new to all of this. I am not sure what I believe ATM. I am not attacking with my questions, I merely want to understand the position and learn the truth.

So I have seen meteorites  fall to the earth. If we are in a dome, well were do they come from then? I know they are real please explane.

If we are under a dome,  it could be shiny bits of the dome breaking off.

Then that's some very predictable breaking! My favorite meteor shower of the year is coming up Dec 13th/14th - the Geminids. They, and all meteors, fly across the sky at unimaginable speeds, much faster than falling.

interesting.  Do we have photos of the dome? that would be so awesome.  I am very curious about iron from meteories. I love history and there is a lot of history about making weapons from iron from the sky, meteorite weapons.

Here's one..

I've asked this same question here before. FET has zero plausible explanation. I'll keep an eye out on this to see if you have better luck.

Certainly, you've seen pictures of the sky?

(p.s. I was joking about bits of the dome breaking off)

Crash course in the DE model of FET (just explaining a few relevant details, not the complete model by any means). The stars are solid objects, formed of dust and rock that exist above the Earth. They rotate and are kept up in flows that you can imagine are like the tops of domes, with the Earth being the flat side.
Some objects, that haven't yet formed stars (and so look dull), will be torn apart by the flow, or will dip too low, and end up falling to Earth.

How would this explain the predictability?

Basically: there are rocks in the sky, sometimes they fall.

Yeah, but I know it's gonna happen Dec 13th/14th. That doesn't answer the question.

That's because I was answering a different post. I answered your post before that.

That does not explain a meteor shower being predicted on a certain date, months or years in advance.

The Perseid meteor shower provides one of the most striking and beautiful proofs that the Earth does not revolve around the Sun.

You seem to abuse the meaning of the word "paradox" in all cases.

Interesting opinions Sando, thank you.

Only if you imagine them falling straight down from nearby, which wouldn't be the case. The only way we predict meteors is by seeing them coming, no matter which model you adhere to.

Individual meteors cannot be predicted, but Meteor Showers certainly can be, see EarthSky’s meteor shower guide for 2016.
See that site for these meteor showers:
         Around the March equinox … fireball season
         April 21-22, 2016 Lyrids
         May 5-6, 2016 Eta Aquarids
         July 28-29, 2016 Delta Aquarids
         August 11-12, possible Perseid outburst in 2016
         October 7, 2016 Draconids
         October 20-21, 2016 Orionids
         November 4-5, 2016 South Taurids
         November 11-12, 2016 North Taurids
         November 16-17, 2016 Leonids
         December 13-14, 2016 Geminids
Explain those on FET, DET or whatever ?ET you chose.

The only way we predict meteors is by seeing them coming, no matter which model you adhere to.

What is it that you can "see coming" tonight, that will allow you to predict the arrival of the Gemenid meteor shower five weeks from now?
