Looking up at the stars is like peeking into a giant sparkling puzzle. Some stars make shapes called constellations, like the Big Dipper or Orion.

Long ago, sailors used the stars to guide their ships. Today, people still love stargazing, especially on clear nights far away from city lights.

Have you ever seen a shooting star? It’s not really a star but a rock burning up in the sky. Still, many people make wishes when they see one.
