A body of rock and metal that orbits the Sun

Real World Example

Imagine trying to keep a hula hoop spinning around your waist without it falling. Just like the hula hoop moves in a circular path around your body, an asteroid orbits the Sun in its own path. The way you constantly adjust your movements to keep the hula hoop spinning is similar to how gravity keeps the asteroid on its path, with the asteroid being like the hula hoop, your body representing the Sun, and your movements acting as the force of gravity maintaining the orbit.
