About Asteroids
Asteroids are rocky, metallic objects that orbit the Sun but are too small to be considered planets. They are also known as minor planets that are made up of material left over from the formation of the solar system. Asteroids can range in size from a diameter of about 1000 km to the size of pebbles.
