Most of the space rocks which eventually become meteoroids formed in space about the same time as the rest of the solar system did.
Probably the most common meteoroids are remnants of comets; we know that several of the annual "meteor showers" are associated with known cometary orbits.
Many meteoroids were fragments broken from asteroids when they have collided.
And at least a couple of meteorites which have been discovered here on Earth are known to have come from Mars! Asteroid impacts on Mars have knocked rocks and dust completely off of Mars and into orbit around the Sun, where they have impacted the Earth.

The average space rock that becomes a meteor is typically a fragment from a comet, or a shard thrown off when two asteroids collide.
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.
