Shooting Stars
















Shooting Stars

 A flash of light briefly streaks across the sky, and then disappears. It is probably a meteor- a common sight. Meteors are also known as shooting stars. A meteor is a chunk of rock or dust that burns up as it enters Earth's atmosphere. Most meteors will attract a magnet, because of their iron magnet. If a meteor smashes into Earth, it is called a meteorite. When they hit Earth's atmosphere, some meteors explode, and the resulting fragments can result in spectacular showers. One famous shower takes place every November, when Earth passes through a swarm of meteors called the Leonid.

We ran toward our classroom window facing our huge school playground. It was not clearly visible. A saucer type of shape appeared in the sky. It was still not visible as the sky was too cloudy and dark. Slowly-slowly after a while, the object was visible. It was a UFO!!! It was very huge and big and there were giant lights at the sides of the UFO. Then it landed on our playground. Everyone was very scared. I hardly could breathe.
