Wish Upon a Shooting Star

Bismillah,

You often hear - wish upon a shooting star. Have you ever wondered how in the world of God can a star fly ? i mean sure if your a "star" your gunna rise high and soar through the sky ... but im talking forreal man. 

I was recently memorizing surah saffat and i came upon these ayahs:

                                         إِنَّا زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِزِينَةٍ الْكَوَاكِبِ 

وَحِفْظًا مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ مَارِدٍ                                                                             .لَا يَسَّمَّعُونَ إِلَى الْمَلَإِ الْأَعْلَىٰ وَيُقْذَفُونَ مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ .دُحُورًا ۖ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ وَاصِبٌ .إِلَّا مَنْ خَطِفَ الْخَطْفَةَ فَأَتْبَعَهُ شِهَابٌ ثَاقِبٌ

Verily, We have decorated the nearest sky with an adornment, the stars, (6) And (have made them) a security against every rebellious devil. (7) They cannot listen to the Upper Realm and are hit from every side (8) To be driven off, and for them there is a lasting punishment; (9) However, if one snatches a little bit, he is pursued by a bright flame. ² (10)

What do i have left to say but Subhanallah. :)
