Yes, dust. You know, the dust that is shed by comets, plus asteroids too (active asteroids, and the ejecta from impacts). The meteors you see in the night are generated by entry of sand-sized particles, which are bombarding Earth constantly.

Wednesday, Sep 17

Giovanna Rinaldi (IAPS-INAF, Italy)- Cometary dust after Rosetta: A team effort
