Meteors. If a meteoroid comes close enough to Earth and enters Earth's atmosphere, it vaporizes and turns into a meteor: a streak of light in the sky. Because of their appearance, these streaks of light are sometimes called "shooting stars." But meteors are not actually stars.

Meteors are commonly called 'Shooting Stars' because they appear like bright streaks of light falling from the sky.
