Where do asteroids live at?
Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun in the asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter. Some asteroids can also be found in other regions of the solar system, such as near Earth or in the outer solar system.
What is a band of asteroids?
A band of asteroids, also known as an asteroid belt, is a region in space between Mars and Jupiter where a large concentration of asteroids are found. These asteroids vary in size, shape, and composition, and are thought to be remnants from the early solar system. The most well-known asteroid belt is the Main Asteroid Belt, located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
What is the name for a band of asteroids?
Some asteroids are considered associated and are called "groups." Most asteroids are not part of groups but are in a "belt" positioned between Mars and Jupiter. Certain zones of gravitional equilibrium can capture asteroids. These zones are known as LaGrange Points. Jupiter, having the most powerful planetary gravity, has several groups at these points. Two of them, because the individual asteroids in them are named after heroes in the Trojan War, are known as "Trojan asteroids." One group is the "Trojan" group and another is the "Greek" group, even though there's an important Trojan in the Greeks and an important Greek with the Trojans.
What is the number of known asteroids?
Not sure about ateroids. If you means asteroids, the Minor Planets Centre, the organisation responsible for collecting observational data for such objects, there was enough information for over 600,000 asteroids for them to have a formal designation - a number.
Which material is found in asteroids helium hydrocarbons hydrogen or water?
Water and hydrocarbons are commonly found in asteroids. Helium and hydrogen are less common, but can also be detected in some asteroids.
What is planetoid known as?
The planetoids are also known as planetesimals, as well as asteroids.
What is also known as planetoids?
The planetoids are also known as planetesimals, as well as asteroids.
Which asteroids and comets are on Mercury?
There are no known asteroids or comets that have impacted Mercury.

What are asteorid's known as?
Asteroids are also known as meteors, shooting stars, falling stars, bolides and comets.

What are the group of asteroids that may occasionally cross earth?
Asteroids that occasionally cross the orbit of Earth are known as Near Earth Asteroids. Asteroids that both cross the orbit of the Earth and are large enough to pose a significant threat in the event of an impact are known as Potentially Hazardous Asteroids.
Also known as a Minor planet?
A minor planet is another term used to refer to asteroids in the solar system. These rocky bodies are smaller than planets and are typically found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They are also known as planetoids.
Are asteroids known as minor planets?
Yes.
how many total asteroids are there (asteroid belt AND kuiper belt) (also including rogue asteroids that arent in those asteroid belts)?
The total number of asteroids in the solar system is not known with certainty, as many asteroids are small and difficult to detect, and new asteroids are constantly being discovered. However, astronomers estimate that there are millions of asteroids in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and potentially trillions of objects in the Kuiper Belt beyond Neptune. In addition, there are also a number of asteroids that do not reside in either the asteroid belt or Kuiper Belt, but instead follow their own unique orbits. These objects are sometimes referred to as "rogue asteroids," and their exact number is not known. Overall, while the exact number of asteroids in the solar system is uncertain, it is clear that there are many millions, if not trillions, of these small rocky bodies orbiting the sun.

yes because they have an orbit
