Answer:
1. In astronomy, an astronomical object or celestial object is a naturally occurring physical entity, association, or structure that exists in the observable universe. In astronomy, the terms object and body are often used interchangeably.
2. shooting stars. countable noun. A shooting star is a piece of rock or metal that burns very brightly when it enters the Earth's atmosphere from space, and is seen from earth as a bright star traveling very fast across the sky.
3. Asteroids are actually minor planets which can neither be classified either as a planet or as a comet. These are generally in the direct orbit around the Sun, also known as the inner solar system. The larger forms of asteroids are also known as planetoids.
4. A meteoroid is a small space rock moving through a solar system. Space is full of meteoroids. Most meteoroids are small, the size of pebbles or dust from a comet's tail, but they can also be quite large. ... If part of that meteor survives the trip through the atmosphere and hits the Earth, it's a meteorite.
5. an object in space that looks like a bright star with a tail and that moves around the sun
