Its a meteoroid! or an asteroid
Absolutely not. The Sun is not a meteoroid, it is a star. A meteoroid is a chunk of rock and debris travelling through space.
planets
Yes.
The meteoroid hurtled through space towards Earth.
The space rock is the celestial space object that a meteoroid comes from.
A meteoroid is not the same as a meteorite. A meteoroid is a small piece of rock or even dust flying through space.

A meteoroid is a small piece of space debris in the solar system. When a meteoroid enters the Earths atmosphere it becomes a meteor (shooting star).If the meteoroid survives the atmosphere and lands on the Earth, it becomes a meteorite.
After it hits Earth, a meteoroid is called a meteor.
No. The gravity of a meteoroid is negligible, so it cannot hold onto an atmosphere.
A meteoroid that survives its passage through Earth's atmosphere becomes a meteorite. It must be both large and dense. I hope it is useful for you.
