Here's why:
* Shooting stars are not related to the moon: Shooting stars are caused by tiny particles of dust and rock entering Earth's atmosphere and burning up. They occur all the time, regardless of the moon's phase.
* The moon's brightness can make them harder to see: A full moon is very bright, making it harder to see fainter meteors. However, brighter meteors can still be visible.
So, while a full moon might make it more challenging to observe shooting stars, they can still happen during this lunar phase.
