Definition of asteroid in English English dictionary
- A naturally occurring solid object, smaller than a planet, orbiting a star
- one of the numerous small planets whose orbits lie between those of Mars and Jupiter; called also planetoids and minor planets
- These are small rocky bodies, smaller than planets, these bodies are so small that they do not form spheres, but are irregular in shape Most asteroids can be found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter Some asteroids have high orbital eccentricities and orbital inclination There are collections of asteroids, trapped gravitationally at Jupiter's trojan points
- any of numerous small celestial bodies composed of rock and metal that move around the sun (mainly between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter) shaped like a star
- Small moonlets that orbit the sun They are made of rock and they shine by reflected sunlight Many of them rotate and their irregular shapes cause variations of brightness in a day or so The brightest asteroids are too faint to be seen with the naked eye
- (Also "planetoid") These are rocky bodies, the vast majority of which orbit the Sun between Mars and Jupiter It is thought that there must be around 100,000 in all The largest asteroid is Ceres which has a diameter of 579 miles The smallest detected asteroids have diameters of several hundred feet Together with comets and meteoroids, asteroids make up the minor bodies of the solar system They are considered to be left over planetesimals from the formation of our solar system The gravitational pull of Jupiter is thought to have stopped the members of the asteroid belt from forming a planet
- Small, rocky world Most asteroids are between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter See Asteroid, Comet and Meteor Facts page
- (also "planetoid") a medium-sized rocky object orbiting the Sun; smaller than a planet, larger than a meteoroid
- — Any of the numerous small rocky bodies in orbit around the Sun Most asteroids reside in the "main belt" between Mars and Jupiter, but some have orbits that cross Earth's orbit and could strike its surface
- An asteroid is one of the very small planets that move around the sun between Mars and Jupiter. one of the many small planets that move around the sun, especially between Mars and Jupiter (asteroeides , from aster ). Any of the many small rocky objects found mainly in a flat ring, or belt, between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It is thought that the gravitational influence of what became Jupiter kept the asteroids from aggregating into a single planet while the solar system was forming. Also called minor planets, asteroids are smaller than any of the nine major planets; only about 30 are more than 125 mi (200 km) across. Ceres is the largest known asteroid. Millions of boulder-sized asteroidal fragments are thought to exist in the solar system. Asteroids or their fragments regularly strike Earth, plunging through the atmosphere as meteors to reach its surface (see meteorite). Asteroids appear to be composed of carbonaceous, stony, and metallic (mainly iron) materials. See also Earth-crossing asteroid; Trojan asteroids
- A rocky object orbiting the Sun; smaller than a planet, and larger than a meteoroid, they are considered planetoids Found in the asteroid belt, between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter
- one of a number of objects ranging in size from sub-kilometer to about 1,000 kilometers, most of which lie between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter; also called "minor planets"
- A rocky body orbiting the Sun is usually greater than 100 m in diameter Most asteroids orbit between Mars and Jupiter, roughly from 2 - 4 AU from the Sun
- A starlike body; esp
- A naturally occurring solid object, smaller than a planet, orbiting the Sun
- {i} small object that orbits the sun
- Rocky objects orbiting the Sun not large enough to be considered planets Most are located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter Also called meteoroids and minor planets See also: comet, meteor, meteorite, planet
- A small body that orbits the sun Most asteroids are thought to be the result of debris left over from the formation of the solar system Most asteroids occur in the region between Mars and Jupiter Collisions among the bodies in the asteroid belt and adjacent planets displace fragments and place them on a collision course with Earth The asteroid belt is thought to be the source of most meteorites
- An object orbiting the Sun that is smaller than a major planet (tens of meters to about 1,000 km diameter), but shows no evidence of an atmosphere or other types of activity associated with comets Most asteroids are located in a belt between Mars and Jupiter from 2 2 to 3 3 AU from the Sun
- any of numerous small celestial bodies composed of rock and metal that move around the sun (mainly between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter)
- Pieces of rock, iron and dust which are thought to be the remnants of the early solar system formation Most asteroids (which means "star-like," since in the first observations they appeared as moving points of light) are inner solar system objects that orbit the Sun between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter The orbits are occasionally perturbed (by Jupiter or collisions with each other) to cause them to take orbits which cross the Earth's orbit Asteroids are the primary source of the sporadic meteors, and certainly the major source of meteorites Some meteorites appear to come from impacts of asteroids on Mars and the Moon
- Small bodies composed of rock and metal in orbit about the Sun
- A large rocky body in space but small compared to a planet Typically an asteroid is hundreds of miles across Their orbits have an average distance from the Sun of about 2 7 AU's The first three asteroids found were called Ceres, Juno and Vesta Ceres is about the size of the State of Texas These bodies lie in a belt of asteroids between Mars and Jupiter See the table on the planets NASA has a NEAR mission to an asteroid
- boulder to mountain-sized piece of rock remaining from the early solar system The largest asteroid is only 1000 kilometers across but most are much smaller
- A rocky or metallic object which is too small to be considered a planet Ranges in size from around 1000km to a few cm
- A small planetary body in orbit around the Sun, larger than a meteoroid but smaller than a planet Most asteroids can be found in a belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter The orbits of some asteroids take them close to the Sun, which also takes them across the paths of the planets
- A small solar system body ranging in size from a few hundred kilometers to less than one kilometer in size
- One of thousands of small rocky-material bodies revolving in orbits, chiefly between Mars and Jupiter in the asteroid belt
- One of many thousands of relatively small and rocky bodies that orbit the Sun They range in size from Ceres, roughly 600 miles across, to an undefined lower limit that grades into meter-sized chunks and smaller Some of the smaller asteroidal chunks may be the meteoroids that frequently burn up in Earth's atmosphere and cause meteors Astronomers have discovered many "Near Earth Asteroids" that cross the Earth's orbit and some that plunge in deep toward the Sun, but the majority orbit between Mars and Jupiter in what has become known as the asteroid belt
- a rocky body much smaller than major planets and usually (but not always) found in an orbit between Mars and Jupiter
- Any of the thousands of small rocky objects that orbit around the Sun, most of them between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter (although some pass closer to the Sun that Earth does and others have orbits that take them well beyond Jupiter) The largest asteroid is one called Ceres; it's about as wide as the state of Texas
- small, rocky bodies orbiting the sun Many are found in orbit between Mars and Jupiter [2: comet ]; [2: meteorite ]

- Earth-crossing asteroid
- Asteroid whose path around the Sun crosses Earth's orbit. Three groups of such asteroids Aten, Apollo, and Amor asteroids are distinguished by the size of their orbits and how closely they approach the Sun. The Atens and Apollos cross Earth's orbit on an almost continuous basis, whereas only about half the Amors are Earth crossers and then only part of the time. Astronomers have mounted searches for objects that closely approach Earth, partly to determine whether they may collide with the planet, since early detection might make it possible to avert a catastrophe. According to some estimates, 1,000 Earth-crossing asteroids larger than 0.6 mi (1 km) may exist. Impacts of 0.6-mi-size asteroids are believed to occur a few times every million years. Such a collision would deliver the explosive force of several hydrogen bombs, possibly resulting in global climate disturbances or huge tidal waves. The impact of an object about 6 mi (10 km) in diameter is thought to have caused a massive extinction of species, including the dinosaurs, at the end of the Cretaceous Period
