Question

short note on asteroids

Answer 1

Asteroids are small, rocky bodies that were left over after the formation of the planets 4.5 billion years ago.They are often called as minor planets. Most of them can be found orbiting around the Sun in a belt between Mars and Jupiter. This region in our solar system is called the Asteroid Belt or Main Belt Asteroids. The word Asteroid means star-like. They were given this name because they are seen as points of lights even with powerful telescopes.
