Description	An egg-shaped asteroid capable of creating wormholes to other places. They are also capable of powering up machines or living beings.

For the episode, see Eggsteroids.

Eggsteroids are one of the main plot devices for Angry Birds Space, alongside wormholes, with both being linked to each other. They act as the counterparts to Golden Eggs, and are also used as power sources for boss fights.

Appearance

Eggsteroids are egg-shaped asteroids with small craters on them. Some Eggsteroids are colored bright orange, while others are pale. In the Angry Birds Space Comic, Ice Bird's Eggsteroid bears resemblance to a Golden Egg instead.

Gameplay

Collectable Eggsteroids can be found in select levels. When struck, a wormhole will open up and instantly take the player to that level. However, Eggsteroids that come out of defeated bosses are unobtainable and only act as props. In Danger Zone D-30's remake, Eggsteroids work similarly to the crystals that Alien Pig's UFO uses. However, a small wormhole is fired off instead, there are four wormholes instead of three, and regular eggs will occasionally come out as well.

Story

Eggsteroids have no confirmed origin; they are only known to open up wormholes to another dimension or place, something that can already be caused by the overstimulation of bird energy, and are also occasionally found floating around Pig Bang and Cold Cuts. Ice Bird used his Eggsteroid to escape from King Pig, landing on the Cobalt Plateaus. After catching the Eggsteroid using The Claw and the Flock's eggs aswell, Eggsteroids have since then been stolen multiple times for ill purposes, with the Flock always trying to stop them.

Big Bork ate an Eggsteroid to grow to a gargantuan size, and Alien Pig sucked up another to superpower his UFO. Eggsteroids have also been used to power up Brass Hogs' brass planets, and they are seen shut down and broken once the Flock defeats King Pig once again. In hopes of finding more Eggsteroids, King Pig even started a mining operation in Beak Impact which was promptly shut down.

Behind the scenes, Hektor Porko, however, has stolen more Eggsteroids than anything before him, even taking the Flock's eggs, likely to lure them into the Mirror Worlds. In reality, this was a trick to cover up the fact that he is working with Leonard to steal more Eggsteroids and harness their abilities to create wormholes. Hektor Porko flies back into Danger Zone as the Flock chases him, and defeat him and Leonard in a final battle, rescuing all the stolen Eggsteroids and their eggs.
