The answer is METEOR.
A shooting star, commonly referred to as a meteor, is a bright streak of light that occurs when a meteoroid—typically a small fragment of a comet or asteroid—enters Earth’s atmosphere at high speed. As the meteoroid descends, it encounters the air, causing it to heat up due to friction. This intense heat causes the meteoroid to glow, producing a brilliant flash of light that can be visible from the ground.
The term "shooting star" is a misnomer, as these phenomena are not stars but rather fleeting glimpses of meteoroids burning up in the atmosphere. While most meteoroids disintegrate completely before reaching the Earth’s surface, larger ones that survive the journey and land on the ground are called meteorites.
