When can a meteorite enter an alien galaxy?

Never. A "meteorite" is a space rock that fell through the Earth's atmosphere and became a "meteor", and survived the fall to the Earth. No meteorite from Earth will ever be taken to an "alien galaxy". Why would we? We'll find plenty of space rocks in space, where we don't have to use fuel to lift them back into space from the Earth's surface.

How often do meteors orbit?

They do not orbit at all. A "meteor" is the glowing streak of light in the sky caused when a space rock penetrates the Earth's atmosphere and is heated to incandescence through friction and compressive heating. The space rock (sometimes called a "meteoroid") is no longer orbiting the Sun, which it HAD been doing; the space rock will either explode, or disintegrate, or fall to Earth. The pieces that fall to Earth are called "meteorites". The pieces that disintegrate are called "dust".
