Can the Sun ever be a shooting star?
It is quite possible that the sun will turn into a Planetary Nebula. Planetary Nebulae are created when a star less than 8 solar masses turn into red giant stars. It can expel its outer shell by solar winds and also pulsing. These radiate out as planetary nebulae. Stars larger than 8 solar masses also undergo this process but normally end up as a supernova completely scattering the nebula.
Why is a shooting star not a star?
A star is a giant ball of superheated hydrogen and helium that generates heat and light through nuclear fusion. All stars other than the sun are light years away. A shooting star is a meteor, which is a small object, usually a piece of rock, burning up in Earth's atmosphere.
What is the difference between a regular star and a shooting star?
