Every year nearly 40,000 tons of microscopic particles from asteroid collisions or passing comets rain down on the Earth. Much of this extraterrestrial debris is vaporized or melted in the atmosphere. Only a tiny amount of dust - mainly particles no bigger than the width of a human hair-- survives entry, much of it settling to the bottom of oceans and lakes or is trapped in ice. If there were significant amounts contributing to the huge volume of the earth, we'd see substantially larger amounts of it in the Antarctic ice cores than we actually find.

Where does the vaporised dust go?

Into condensation particles for raindrops,
after which they end up in/contribute to the mud.
