A meteoroid is a particle of debris in the Solar System, the luminous trail it leaves in the atmosphere is called a meteor, or "shooting star". When a meteor reaches the ground, it is then called a meteorite. Multiple station meteors can be tracked to their parent bodies, comets an asteroids, including NEOS. When recovered they may provide detailed information about the primordial Solar System and possibly about the origins of life on Earth.
The Observatory MPC J87 at La Cañada participates in the studies on minor bodies promoted by the Group on Meteorites, Minor Bodies, and Planetary Sciences of the Institute of Space Sciences (CSIC-IEEC).
