Meteoroids are small rocky or metallic bodies in space, typically ranging in size from a grain of dust to about a meter. When these meteoroids enter Earth's atmosphere and produce a bright streak of light due to friction, they are called meteors. If they survive their passage through the atmosphere and land on Earth's surface, they are referred to as meteorites. Thus, the key differences lie in their location: meteoroids are in space, meteors are the atmospheric phenomena they create, and meteorites are the remnants that reach the ground.
