Minor planet (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

asteroid

'minor planet' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for asteroid that I've seen before include "could be dangerous for astronauts" , "Small rocky object orbiting the sun - store aid (anag)" , "Small body orbiting sun" , "space traveller" , "Small planet orbiting the Sun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Sun and the Evening Standard.
