Some of the most famous asteroid or meteor craters include the Chicxulub crater in Mexico, linked to the extinction of the dinosaurs, the Barringer Crater (Meteor Crater) in Arizona, USA, and the Tunguska event in Siberia, Russia. These impact sites have provided valuable insights into the history of our planet and the impacts of celestial objects.
I looked up at the night sky and saw a bright meteor streaking across, leaving a trail of light behind.
A rock. If it hits the Earth's atmosphere and we see it, it will be a "meteor". When it lands on the Earth, it will be a "meteorite".
No, a meteor is not an asteroid. A meteor is a small rocky or metallic body that enters Earth's atmosphere and burns up, creating a streak of light in the sky. An asteroid is a larger rocky body that orbits the sun.
There isn't really any differences they are the same thing except an asteroid is MUCH MUCH bigger than a meteor, an asteroid is what killed off the dinos along time ago not a meteor. So say Jupiter and Pluto were a meteor, and a asteroid, Pluto wouold be the meteor and Jupiter would be the asteroid

Meteor or asteroid
Because they're not actual 'stars' - they are in fact pieces of rock, from the asteroid belt which circles the sun beyond the orbit of Mars. The asteroid belt is believed to be the remnants of a planet that didn't form properly in the early days of the solar system. The correct term is meteor, or when they land on earth, meteorite.
First, Apophis as an asteroid, not a meteor. A meteor is an object that has entered the atmosphere. Apophis is probably gray in color.
