The data of studying meteoric particles on Elektron-1 and Elektron-3 space vechicles were processed in a new way which made it possible to get the first idea of the Earth’s dust envelope structure. Meteoric matter is distributed in it not unformly, but as aggregations of particles moving around the Earth in more or less stable orbits at certain distances from the Earth’s surface.
