A star looks like a light in the sky. A meteor looks like a small light flying across the sky. People have called them shooting stars or falling stars as a result, although a meteor is not a star.
The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".The Perseid meteors and all meteors look like a light streaking across the sky, which is why they are sometimes called a "Shooting star" or "Falling star".
Meteors hit the Earth's atmosphere and burn up in a second or two. They streak across the night sky and are gone. Comets are farther away, and move only slowly, night by night, across the sky.
The point from which meteors appear to originate in the night sky is called the radiant. This point marks the direction in the sky from which the meteors appear to be coming during a meteor shower.
In the night sky, several celestial objects move, including planets such as Mars, Venus, and Jupiter, which can often be seen shining brightly. The Moon also travels across the sky, changing its position each night. Additionally, stars appear to twinkle and shift due to Earth's rotation, while meteors occasionally streak across the sky, creating brief flashes of light. Artificial satellites and the International Space Station (ISS) can also be observed moving steadily across the sky.
Meteor shower. It occurs when Earth passes through the debris left behind by a comet, resulting in multiple meteors appearing to come from the same point in the sky.
Meteors mostly come from comets. I mean "meteors" not meteorites. Meteors are the things that burn up as they streak across the sky. They aren't the things that land on Earth.

The Leonid meteor shower occurs on November 17 each year, as the Earth passes through the debris stream in the orbit of comet 55P/Tempel-Tuttle. The best time to view meteors is generally between midnight and dawn, as that's when the Earth is "facing forward" in its orbit.
The point from which meteors appear to originate in the night sky is called the radiant. This point marks the direction in the sky from which the meteors appear to be coming during a meteor shower.
because meteor and etc. move across the sky so that gravity can't get to them.

Meteors are seen in the sky when huge space junk enter the atmosphere and burn up.
It's possible that you saw a meteor! Meteors are space debris that enter the Earth's atmosphere and burn up, creating a streak of light across the sky. They are commonly known as shooting stars.
Meteors are named after the location where they appear to originate from in the sky, known as the radiant point. For example, the Perseid meteor shower is named after the constellation Perseus, as the meteors seem to originate from that area in the sky.
There is not a very specific amount of meteors falling from the sky could be more than fifty to tens of thousands!
