AI overview

A meteoroid is a small piece of rock or metal traveling through space that becomes visible as a meteor when it enters Earth's atmosphere and burns up. It matters because meteoroids that survive the fall and reach Earth's surface as meteorites can help scientists understand the composition of space and the history of our solar system.
