Meteor (disambiguation)

A meteor, commonly called a shooting star and falling star, is the visible trace of a meteoroid as it enters the atmosphere. If it survives impact with the Earth's surface, then it is called a meteorite.

Meteorology, the study of weather, is cognate. Both words derive from the Greek μετέωρος, meteōros, which means "high in the air".
