it would be colder on an asteroid than it is on earth because asteroids are in space and space is so cold that if you were in space without a astronaut suit you would freeze to death immediately but if the asteroid were moving (a shooting star) it would be flaming and would be warmer than earth depending on what part of earth you are talking about (for example the is a large temperature distinction between the Sahara desert and antartica ) hope this helps and good luck with your future studies of earth and space.
