Comets and asteroids are made of chunks of space rocks and dust. Meteorites are space rocks that are captured by the earth's gravity and fall to earth.
Asteroids and meteoroids are large chunks of rock and debris that resemble large chunks of rock in space. When they enter the Earth's atmosphere, they are called meteors or meteorites depending on whether they burn up or make contact with the surface.
Space pollution is the collection of defunct objects in the space around Earth. It includes everything that can be considered debris, from old satellites, spent rocket stages and rock fragments from erosion and collision.
A sedimentary rock composed of large chunks of other rocks cemented together is called a conglomerate. This rock forms when pebbles, cobbles, or boulders are transported by rivers or glaciers and later become cemented together through natural processes.
No, inside a rock is not actually space. Rocks are made up of solid minerals and materials, with no actual empty space within them. The perception of space inside a rock may be due to the gaps between mineral grains or the presence of pores, but it is not the same as outer space.
Erosion in the traditional sense, such as the wearing away of rock by water or wind, does not occur in space due to the lack of atmosphere. However, space weathering can cause erosion-like effects on the surfaces of objects in space, such as asteroids and moons, through processes like micrometeoroid impacts and solar wind bombardment.
They are referred to as asteroids.
The emptiness of space is made of nothing -- absolutely nothing. There are various particles, chunks of rock, dust and gases, but they are made of matter. The space itself is just space. Lots and lots of space.
asteroids is made of chunks of rock
there are 2 rock-like objects that move through space meteors which are like rocks and then there are comets whch are made from ice.
the planet Saturn is located right after the giant planet Jupiter,and right before the planet, Uranus. it has rings made of broken chunks of space rock and other materials.

Asteroids and meteoroids are large chunks of rock and debris that resemble large chunks of rock in space. When they enter the Earth's atmosphere, they are called meteors or meteorites depending on whether they burn up or make contact with the surface.
The term that refers to celestial objects resembling large chunks of rock and debris is "asteroids." These objects primarily reside in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, but they can also be found throughout the solar system. Asteroids vary in size and shape, and they are composed of rock, metal, and other materials.
because they are big chunks of rock hitting your spacecraft
The rings around Saturn are made up of many things, like chunks of ice, rock, and other space debris that have gotten caught in its orbit.
The size of the object crashing into the lunar surface. There is no atmosphere on the moon to slow down approaching objects (as there is on Earth). This means that chunks of space 'rock' don't disintegrate on their way to the moon's surface.
The space rock is the celestial space object that a meteoroid comes from.
