Falling star (6)

I believe the answer is:

meteor

'falling star' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for meteor that I've seen before include "Remote sort of heavenly body" , "extraterrestrial debris" , "Shooting star" , "Solar System body" , "Falling star" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The Star Tribune, The Telegraph and the Universal.
