The fragment of an asteroid or interplanetary material  is known as  a meteoroid.

Most meteoroids are small, the size of pebbles or dust from a comet's tail, but they can also be quite large . They are all chunks off of something bigger, sometimes even the moon or a planet like Mars.

If a meteoroid enters the earth's atmosphere, its called a meteor, or shooting star. If it survives the trip through the atmosphere and hits the earth, its called a meteorite. A lot of meteoroids never end up being meteors or meteorites.

the supreme court plays a big role in government. the constitution gives them ability to check the president and the congresses actions and dictate if their actions are allowed by the constitution or not.

hope this .
