Note: the reason meteorites are seen most often after midnight is the direction of Earth’s movement around the sun relative to the spin that causes night and day. Midnight until noon the overhead sky is on the side of motion around the sun so a meteorite hitting earth is like a bug hitting the windshield of a car. From noon until midnight the overhead sky is on the back side of motion around the sun so a meteorite hitting earth is like a bug hitting the rear window of a car.
