What is bombarded?

"What is bombarded?" means something is being hit by many things all at once.

Imagine you're playing a game where you throw tiny balls at your friend’s face, not one or two, but a lot of them really fast. That's what bombarded feels like!

When we say something is bombarded, it's like being in the middle of a rainstorm when you're wearing a helmet made of soft foam, every drop hits your head, one after another, all at once.

Think about the sun. It sends out lots of tiny particles called solar wind. These are like invisible tiny balls traveling through space. When they reach Earth, they hit our atmosphere, kind of like a rainstorm made of tiny balls, that’s what it means to be bombarded.

So next time you're in the middle of a big storm or your face is full of tiny balls, remember: you’re being bombarded!
