Asteroids
"In the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars, there are twenty-six asteroids larger than 124 miles in diameter, traveling along with hundreds of thousands of smaller asteroids. This page, created by amateur astronomer Bill Arnett, nicely catalogs what is known (and unknown) about these minor planets. Links to great NASA photographs are at the bottom of the page."

Asteroid Science
"Quick quiz: How many planets orbit our Sun? If you said nine, you’re shy by several thousand. Scientists consider asteroids to be minor planets - some are hundreds of miles wide (and seldom round). In addition to a great introduction, best clicks here are the explanation of the Torino scale (""Used to categorize the threat of asteroids, the Torino Scale is similar to the familiar ‘Richter Scale’ of earthquake measurement."") and the Asteroid News Zone."

Asteroid Introduction
"Asteroids that are on a collision course with Earth are called meteoroids. When a meteoroid strikes our atmosphere at high velocity, friction causes this chunk of space matter to incinerate in a streak of light known as a meteor. If the meteoroid does not burn up completely, what’s left strikes Earth’s surface and is called a meteorite."""
