Dear wofahulicodoc: It seems to me that there would be three factors involved:
1.the trajectory of the particles themselves,
2.the motion of the earth along its orbit
3.the rotation of the earth
It must be a bit like an automobile driving through a cloud of insects.
Of these I would expect Earth's motion along its orbit to the the greatest.
I wonder if Earth's gravitation pull has enough time to have much effect
