studio

'just the' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'place for shooting stars' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'place' could be 'stud' (I have seen 'Place of breeding' mean 'stud' so perhaps 'place' could also mean 'stud') and 'stud' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'io' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for studio that I've seen before include "Room to make radio or television programme" , "Artist's work room" , "Film producer" , "Here one may record" , "Building for movie-making" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
