A shooting star is another name for a meteoroid that burns up as it passes through the Earth's atmosphere. So, a shooting star isn't a star at all. Most of the shooting stars that we can see are known as meteoroids. ... When a meteoroid is larger, the streak in the sky is called a fireball or bolide.

Answer:
A satellite will move in a straight line and take several minutes to cross the sky. A meteor, or shooting star, will move in less than a fraction of a second across the sky. Observe the kind of light from the "star". A satellite will brighten and dim in a regular pattern as it crosses the sky.
