Is a rock that is orbiting the sun?

Yes, there are many rocks that are orbiting the sun. Some examples of these rocks would be meteorites or asteroids that circle the sun due to the combined forces of the sun's gravitational force, and the rocks forward momentum. This keeps the rock from falling into the star, but at the same time, prevents the body from escaping the sun's gravitational force. Most of these meteorites are located in belts between mars and Jupiter, and in a belt outside of Pluto, however there are many stragglers that follow erratic courses apart from the others. Kapeesh?
