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".

Asteroid
Moons can be found orbiting planets within our solar system and other planetary systems. They are natural satellites that range in size from small asteroid-like bodies to larger planets like Jupiter. Some moons, such as Earth's moon, are large enough to have their own gravitational pull.
When spacecraft link up while orbiting in space it is called "docking." This involves two spacecraft joining together to form a larger integrated system. This process is often used for crew transfers, cargo delivery, or to build larger structures in space.
This description matches that of an asteroid. Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the sun and are generally smaller than planets. They can be found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter or in other regions of the solar system.

Asteroids are small fractions of much larger stars, planets, and rocks in space.

Asteroid
An object that moves around a larger object in space is typically called a satellite. Satellites can be natural, like moons orbiting planets, or artificial, like spacecraft orbiting Earth. They move in a regular, predictable path due to the gravitational pull of the larger object they are orbiting.
The asteroid belt is made up of remnants of material that never formed into a planet due to the gravitational influence of Jupiter preventing their accretion into a larger body. These asteroids have been orbiting the Sun for billions of years, and are believed to be remnants from the early solar system.
An asteroid has been observed by astronomers to be composed of six massive slabs of materials orbiting in space.
Moons can be found orbiting planets within our solar system and other planetary systems. They are natural satellites that range in size from small asteroid-like bodies to larger planets like Jupiter. Some moons, such as Earth's moon, are large enough to have their own gravitational pull.

The likely word is "asteroid" meaning a small chunk of rock or ice orbiting the Sun. The smaller rocks are also known as meteoroids, especially when they may hit another object, and meteors when they strike a planet, moon, or larger asteroid. The tiniest are called micrometeoroids. The largest asteroid, Ceres, is classified as a dwarf planet.The similar proper noun is Astrid, a female given name from Scandinavia.
Objects in space are always Floating and/or orbiting a larger object because of the lack of gravity in space.
