A Star That Flies Across The Night Sky

The Shooting Star is an event that occurs on your island between the hours of 7pm & 4am. During this event, you can look up to the star & make a wish.

Meteor Showers are entirely random. However, you'll be told a Meteor Shower is coming during the daily morning announcements, so make sure to check every day. As mentioned previously, the star itself comes between the hours of 7pm & 4am.

How Often Do Shooting Stars Come?

While advancing time for various experiments, we observed that Celeste usually appears at least once a month. However, your milage may vary, as it is indeed random.
