The average space rock that becomes a meteor is typically a fragment from a comet, or a shard thrown off when two asteroids collide.
Meteoroids can originate from various celestial objects, including comets, asteroids, or even the debris from planetary collisions. When a meteoroid enters the Earth's atmosphere at high speed, the friction with the air causes it to heat up and emit light, resulting in a phenomenon known as a meteor or "shooting star." This bright streak is often visible for just a few seconds as the meteoroid burns up before potentially reaching the ground as a meteorite.

Neither. A meteor is not a planet. A meteor is a piece of rock or metal falling through the atmosphere.
The celestial equator is an imaginary line in the sky that is used to measure the motion of celestial objects. It is a projection of Earth's equator into space and helps astronomers locate objects in the sky based on their declination.
Asteroid belts are not individual celestial objects themselves, but rather regions in space between planets that contain numerous small rocky bodies called asteroids. These belts are typically located in the inner regions of the solar system, such as between Mars and Jupiter.
The space rock is the celestial space object that a meteoroid comes from.

No. A celestial object is an object in outer space, such as a planet, star, meteor or comet. Clouds are not in outer space, therefore they are not a celestial object.
Some of the most famous asteroid or meteor craters include the Chicxulub crater in Mexico, linked to the extinction of the dinosaurs, the Barringer Crater (Meteor Crater) in Arizona, USA, and the Tunguska event in Siberia, Russia. These impact sites have provided valuable insights into the history of our planet and the impacts of celestial objects.
meteor
The moon is the biggest celestial object that you see from the earth because it is near the earth.At some times (for very short intervals), meteoroids enter the Earth's atmosphere and become meteors. At the second just before hitting the atmosphere, they are still "celestial objects" and are darn close to us. But their "status" does not last very long. By the time you point and shout "Closest celestial body!", it ain't any more. The word "meteor" comes from a Greek word relating to the atmosphere (e.g., check the root of meteorology). So, once a meteoroid becomes a meteor, it is no longer a "celestial body".
stars.
Celestial objects such as the sun appear to rise in the east and set to the west.
Astronomy is the study of celestial objects (Space objects).
