A normal star is a sun.
A "falling star" or a "shooting star" has nothing at all to do with a star! These amazing streaks of light you can sometimes see in the night sky are caused by tiny bits of dust and rock called meteoroids falling into the Earth's atmosphere and burning up. The short-lived trail of light the burning meteoroid produces is called a meteor. Meteors are commonly called falling stars or shooting stars. If any part of the meteoroid survives burning up and actually hits the Earth, that remaining bit is then called a meteorite.

Shooting stars look like starsthat quickly shoot across the sky, but they are not stars. Ashooting star is really a small piece of rock or dust that hits Earth's atmosphere from space. ... Shooting stars are actually what astronomers call meteors. Most meteors burn up in theatmosphere before they reach the ground.
