Physical characteristics

[edit | edit source]
A Meteorite, long after making contact with earth.

Most meteorites are very small in relative size to Earth, most of them are about the size of a giant rock or on other words: far too small to be planets, just like comets and asteroids, this bodies due to self gravitation are not round so most of them look like a potato with many holes on its surface.
