Asteroids were formed millions of years ago from the dust particles when the different solar systems collided, which as a result formed larger clumps known as planetesimals. The origin of asteroids has been a very long time, and it is supported by the theory, in which an asteroid wipes out the whole dinosaur species that were living on  Earth during ancient times. In conclusion to answer the question, Asteroids were not recently formed, therefore the answer is false.

Final answer:

False
