[meteorite-list] Appropriate terminology?

[tracy latimer]

What would be the correct thing to call an impactor like Hadley Rille or Bench Crater? I gather that 'meteorite' refers only to things that impact Earth; how about things that hit other planets? Eventually we will find more foreign bodies on other planets; may as well get the language straight now!
