Comet is not the right answer.
Your answer is absolutely correct! A falling star is actually a meteor burning up in the Earth's atmosphere. When a meteoroid (a small piece of rock or debris in space) enters the Earth's atmosphere, the friction between the meteoroid and the air causes it to heat up and create a bright streak of light, which we commonly refer to as a falling star or a shooting star. So, well done on providing the correct answer!
