There have been about 300 identified Earth-crossing asteroids. The total number of asteroids that cross the Earth's orbit is estimated to be significantly greater than this; by one estimate, there are perhaps 1500 asteroids that are greater than 1km across, and 135,000 steroids that are greater than 100m across.

What are the characteristic of each member of solar system?

The Sun is a star at the center of the solar system, providing heat and light to the planets. The eight planets vary in size, composition, and distance from the Sun, with Mercury being the smallest planet closest to the Sun and Neptune being the farthest gas giant. Moons orbit many of the planets, with some having more than others. For example, Jupiter has the most moons in the solar system. Asteroids and comets also exist in the solar system, with asteroids being rocky and comets being icy.


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.
