Detailed Solution

A meteor that reaches the earth is called a meteorite.
Meteorites are space rocks that collide with the earth's surface. Meteorites are the final stage of the evolution of these space rocks. When meteoroids collide with the earth's atmosphere, the gases surrounding them briefly light up as "shooting stars." Most meteorites that fall to the earth come from the asteroid belt.
