A piece of space debris that falls to earth is commonly known as a meteorite. When knocked out of orbit during collisions with other space material, meteorites can travel through the atmosphere and make landfall.
A streak of light in the sky produced by the burning of a meteoroid in Earth's atmosphere is called a meteor. As the meteoroid enters the atmosphere at high speed, it experiences intense friction with air molecules, causing it to heat up and emit light. This phenomenon is often colloquially referred to as a "shooting star." If the meteoroid survives its passage through the atmosphere and lands on the Earth's surface, it is then called a meteorite.
The term that describes a bright streak of light resulting from a meteoroid burning up in Earth's atmosphere is "meteor." This phenomenon occurs when the meteoroid, entering the atmosphere at high speed, heats up and ionizes the surrounding air, creating a glowing trail. If the meteoroid survives its passage and lands on Earth, it is then called a meteorite.

Meteoroids don't enter the earths atmosphere, Meteors do. Meteoroids are the rocks that you find on the ground after a meteor penetrated the atmosphere and made it to the ground.
