Depending on the size of the rock, we might refer to it as
a meteoroid, a comet, an asteroid, a moon, or a planet.
Its a meteoroid! or an asteroid
this is called a meteor.
Rock fragments traveling in space are called meteoroids. When a meteoroid enters Earth's atmosphere and burns up, it creates a streak of light known as a meteor or shooting star. If any part of the meteoroid survives and reaches the Earth's surface, it becomes known as a meteorite.
A mass of rock moving through space is called an asteroid. These rocky objects can range in size from a few meters to several kilometers across and orbit the Sun.
When small pieces of rock moving through space enter Earth's atmosphere and burn up, they are called meteoroids.
The pattern is known as: Concentric ripples.

A meteor. Technically, "meteor" is the fiery trail of the space rock as it falls. If the rock survives passing through the atmosphere, the rock (or fragments of it) are called "meteorites".
A meteriod is a floating piece of rock in space. It becomes a meteor when it is flying through the atmosphere. The piece of rock that survives the trip through the atmosphere is called a meteorite.
A piece of space rock floating through space is a meteoroid. When it hits the atmosphere and glows white-hot with the heat of friction, it is a meteor.Once it hits the ground, it is a meteorite.
Rocks that hit the Earth's surface are called meteorites. When a meteoroid (a rock in space) survives its journey through the atmosphere and lands on the Earth's surface, it is referred to as a meteorite.
