No, stars are not part of our solar system. Our solar system consists of the Sun and all the objects that orbit it, such as planets, moons, asteroids, and comets. Stars are separate celestial bodies that exist outside of our solar system.
Objects that move between Mars and Jupiter are asteroids. These asteroids mainly exist in the asteroid belt located between the two planets. They vary in size and shape, ranging from small rocky fragments to large irregularly shaped bodies.
Asteroids, by definition, are much smaller than planets. That's one reason why they are mostly shaped irregular, unlike planets which are close to being round. The round shape is due to the increased mass (or weight) and only large masses tend to be round due to gravity.
It sounds like you are describing an asteroid, which is a small rocky body that orbits the sun. Asteroids are most commonly found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, but they can exist in various other regions of the solar system as well.
A curious question.Generally speaking, in and of itself, the Solar System doesn't DO anything except that it resides in a particular location in space. The Solar System is rather a place than a thing. The Solar System is a location where exists a group pf planets, (9 if you still think of Pluto as a planet, 8 if not) planetesimals, asteroids, comets, and our local star resides.As a group of the above named items as well as all the other stuff, the Solar system has a gravitational effect in it's local, galactic neighborhood.Perhaps you could refine your question, What is it you want to know about the Solar System.
The number of asteroids cannot be counted. It is like counting the number of grains of sand on a beach.
Asteroids and Comets.
No real "scientist" believes that aliens exist, just as no real scientist 'believes' that aliens do not exist. That's just a simple fact that comes from simple definitions. A real 'Scientist' is an observer who draws conclusions from what he observes. His conclusions have nothing to do with opinion, faith, judgment, or what he believes or doesn't believe. No observation by astronomers, astrophysicists, cosmologists, biologists, physicists, or anyone else has provided any evidence yet that points to the existence of life outside of Earth, or any evidence that rules it out. So nobody has any scientific basis for 'believing' either way ... even though many people, including many scientists, have a strong hunch that it does exist.
Most asteroids exist in the asteroid belt, which is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. This region is characterized by a large concentration of small rocky bodies that orbit the Sun. Some asteroids can also be found in other regions of the solar system.

Asteroids can be found primarily in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Some asteroids also exist outside of the asteroid belt, such as near Earth or in other regions of the solar system.
Between Mars and Jupiter in the asteroid beltThe largest collection of asteroids is found in the asteroid belt, a ring located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.It is sometimes called the Main Belt because asteroids exist in other orbits as well.
The solar system formed from a rotating cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula about 4.6 billion years ago. Gravity caused this cloud to collapse and form the sun at its center, with the remaining material forming the planets, moons, asteroids, and other objects in the solar system.
Mars and Jupiter
Most of the asteroids within our solar system can be found within the Asteroid Belt. Located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, the Asteroid Belt consists of millions of individual asteroids of varying sizes - from a speck of dust to hundreds of kilometers in diameter. The largest object within the belt is a dwarf planet - Ceres - which has a mass of 9.47x1020kg and a diameter of 476.2km.
None. Asteroids exist outside the atmosphere.
