(Najua unanipima akili)
Whats the difference? Tuelemishe
Nop. Imenibidi I google to confirm kaka.
The primary difference between a meteorite and an asteroid lies in their location and status relative to Earth:
-
Asteroid: An asteroid is a small rocky body that orbits the Sun. Asteroids are typically found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, though they can be found throughout the solar system. They vary in size from small boulders to objects that are hundreds of kilometers in diameter.
-
Meteorite: A meteorite is a fragment of an asteroid (or sometimes a comet) that survives its passage through the Earth’s atmosphere and lands on the Earth’s surface. When an asteroid or a piece of it enters the Earth’s atmosphere and burns up due to friction, it is called a meteor (commonly known as a shooting star). If any part of the meteor survives the atmospheric entry and impacts the ground, it is termed a meteorite.
In summary, an asteroid is a space rock orbiting the Sun, while a meteorite is a fragment of such a space rock that has landed on Earth.
