A group of curious children sets out on an astronomical adventure to explore the fascinating world of meteors and comets. Guided by an enthusiastic astronomer, they embark on a journey through space to uncover the secrets of these cosmic visitors.

Their adventure begins with a night under the stars, where they witness a spectacular meteor shower. The children learn that meteors, often called "shooting stars," are not actually stars but small pieces of space debris that burn up as they enter Earth's atmosphere. They discover the difference between meteors, meteoroids, and meteorites, and learn how these space rocks provide valuable information about our solar system.
