Meteor
The term that describes a bright streak of light resulting from a meteoroid burning up in Earth's atmosphere is "meteor." This phenomenon occurs when the meteoroid, entering the atmosphere at high speed, heats up and ionizes the surrounding air, creating a glowing trail. If the meteoroid survives its passage and lands on Earth, it is then called a meteorite.
Air heated to incandescence.
celestite
It is heated ionised air and matter from the meteorite.

A meteoroid is a small piece of space debris in the solar system. When a meteoroid enters the Earths atmosphere it becomes a meteor (shooting star).If the meteoroid survives the atmosphere and lands on the Earth, it becomes a meteorite.
The glowing trail produced by a meteoroid as it burns up in Earth's atmosphere is called a meteor or shooting star. This phenomenon occurs due to the intense heat generated as the meteoroid compresses the air in front of it, causing the air to glow brightly along its path.
It is heated ionised air and matter from the meteorite.
