How asteroid became a moon?
Asteroids can become moons through a process called capture, where a larger celestial body, like a planet, gravitationally attracts the asteroid, pulling it into orbit. This can occur when an asteroid passes close to a planet, losing some of its kinetic energy through gravitational interactions. Over time, if the conditions are right, the asteroid can become stable in orbit around the planet, effectively becoming a moon. This process can also involve collisions or interactions with other celestial bodies that alter the asteroid's trajectory.
Can an asteroid be a planet?
NO.
Was there ever a planet in the Asteroid belt?

What is the difference from an asteroid to a dwarf planet?
A dwarf planet is a body that orbits the sun - is often beyond the orbit of Jupiter and is classified below a planet. An asteroid is a body that orbits the sun within the asteroid belt.
Is a asteroid belt a terrestrial planet?
No. The asteroid belt is an area where there are more asteroids than in other parts of the solar system It is not a planet, nor is there enough mass in the asteroid belt to form a whole planet.
What is the largest object in the asteroid belt?
The largest object in the asteroid belt is Ceres at about 580 miles across. It is classified as a dwarf planet rather than an asteroid.
