A formula to compute the mass-height relation for the case of possible antimatter meteor entrance is derived. It is governed by the annihilation cross section for the atom-antiatom interactions, which is experimentally unknown, and by various mechanisms which are possibly reducing its value. For the special case of thermal energies, the annihilation cross-section may be connected with the elastic cross-section by a given relation where the factors are all less or equal to unity. Among them, the most significant is the barrier factor described by many scientists, which may possibly reduce the annihilation cross-section down to lower than 10 to the -11th times than that of a simple elastic collision.
