The chunks of metal and rock between the planets are known as asteroids. They are small celestial bodies that orbit the Sun. Asteroids can vary in size, ranging from small boulders to objects several hundred kilometers in diameter. They are primarily found in the asteroid belt, a region located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, although some asteroids can also be found in other parts of the solar system.
Asteroids are large rock chunks broken from a planet that orbits the sun. They vary in size from a few meters to hundreds of kilometers in diameter.
Icy bits and metal chunks that orbit Saturn and other planets are likely to be part of the planetary rings that encircle these objects. These rings are made up of pieces of ice, rock, and dust that vary in size and composition, but generally revolve around the planet in a flat disk shape.

the asteroid belt
A small lump of rock or metal that moves around the sun mainly between Mars and Jupiter is called an asteroid. These objects are remnants from the early solar system and are mostly found in the asteroid belt between these two planets.
Those are called satellites.
Meteorites.

Asteriods are chunks of rock that escaped the asteroid belts orbit.
asteroids are small chunks of rock which move in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter while dwarf planets like Pluto have a centrifugal force and orbit the sun.
THEY BEGINED WHEN BIG CHUNKS OF HOT ROCK BLASTED & WHICH COOLED DOWN WITH PASSING TIME.
The cores of all four Jovian planets are made of rock, metal, and gasses. The difference between the planets are the layers that surround the cores.

The inner planets composed mainly of rock and metal are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. These planets are also known as terrestrial planets due to their Earth-like composition.
Planets are made up of many different particles. Such as iron, rock, metal, lighter rock elements.
