1991 BA is the closest and smallest asteroid yet observed outside the Earth's atmosphere. Reference.
An asteroid is a rocky object in space. It may be a broken part of a planet. The smallest observed asteroids are 10 meters in size . There may be many asteroids smaller than this but they can not be detected yet and also have not been observed yet.
Even the smallest planet is larger than the largest asteroid.
Patu digua is said to be the smallest spider ever found.
Kathy Jo Bryant and King Daniel Logan LaFevers found the smallest frog ever found in the State of Oklahoma and arguably the entire northern continent on a fishing trip in southeastern Oklahoma, Pittsburg County. June 2009
The largest asteroid is CERES, in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.It is 580 miles (930 km) in diameter , about the size of Texas.It accounts for about 32% of the total mass of the belt.
No planet ever existed where the asteroid belt is. The mass is insufficient for a planet to have formed from all that debris.
Probably on the smallest asteroid.
Small asteroids are called meteoroids.
yes! it depend to gravitational pull and the weight of an asteroid
