This is a very vague question. Best that can be done is describe an asteroid. Asteroids very greatly in size, some are as large as planets. Asteroids generally have an irregular shape (Not rounded by its own gravity like a planet.) Most known asteroids lie within the asteroid belt, but many do not have a regular orbit. I would say, the closest thing to an asteroid, would be a meteoroid, which is basically a small asteroid and is often just a piece that has broken off of an asteroid.
