How to use "Asteroid" in context?
There are over 1000 known asteroids in the solar system, though we know of only a fraction of them. Asteroids are small, rocky objects that orbit the sun. They can be found anywhere in the solar system, but are most common near the sun. Asteroids can be very small, measuring only a few miles across, or they can be huge, measuring hundreds of miles across. Asteroids are made mostly of minerals and rocks, with a small amount of ice or dust.
