Some interesting about Asteroids
1. Asteroids are remains of a rocky planet
to form between Mars and Jupiter 4.5 billion years ago.
. The remains did not stick each other
but smashed into each other.
3. These rocky and metallic objects were
scattered through out the solar system crashing into the planets.
4. Eventually, a belt of rocky bits
known as main belt, settled between Mars and Jupiter, plus a small number of
asteroids on other orbits around the Sun.
5. Some asteroids, known as near-Earth
asteroids, travel close to Earth and have potential to hit the earth.
