Pieces of rock that strike the surface of a moon or planet?

These are meteoroids, small pieces of rock debris in space. They enter the earths atmosphere at high speeds, burning up brightly as shooting stars for a brief period due to the friction against the gas in the atmosphere - at this point they are referred to as meteors. If any surviving pieces are found on the surface, they are called meteorites. Since the moon has no atmosphere, meteoroids are able to survive the decent more easily, since there is no gas to cause them to burn up through friction.
