Project Sky Canvas creates shooting stars to order.

ALE - The future Entertainment of Space (http://global.star-ale.com/)
They paint the night sky with shooting stars. They can provide stars in a variety of colors.

Brightness
In a laboratory setting, our artificial shooting stars have already achieved an apparent magnitude of -1. Even Sirius, the brightest star that can be observed in the night sky, has an apparent magnitude of -1.5. There's no doubt that artificial shooting stars by ALE can clearly be seen anywhere, even in the city.

Color
How do we turn a shooting star into different colors? As one learns in high school science classes, when a substance burns, the flame emits a specific color: This is called the flame reaction. By loading our satellite with various materials, we are able to turn our shooting stars into any color.

Blue / Green / Orange

Speed and Distance
Our shooting star travels slower and longer across the sky than a natural shooting star. This makes it possible for more people to enjoy the spectacle for a longer period of time.

Star light Star bright.
The first star I see tonight,
I wish I may I wish I might,
Make the wish I wish tonight.


Wishing on a Star Really Works

MELBOURNE – Your dreams are 46.5 percent more likely to come true if you gaze into the heavens – and wish for them on a star!

That’s the word from probability expert Kenyon Smith, who conducted a five-year study of adult men and women and found that those who wished for things “on stars” were much more apt to report that their dreams had, in fact, come true.

“This is highly significant,” said the Melbourne, Australia-based expert, whose exciting new book, When We Wish, is slated for a fall release.

“For one thing, it suggests that the probability of something happening can be influenced by thought and desire and possibly even supernatural intervention in human affairs.

“The implications are fascinating. But for the layman, it’s probably enough to know that wishing on stars can increase your chances of having a dream come true,” said Smith.
Smith decided to study the effects of wishing on stars after his 4-year-old daughter asked if the kiddie rhyme Star Light, Star Bright, which suggests that wishing on a star will make your dreams come true, was based in fact.

On a whim, he undertook the study. And he quickly found evidence to suggest that wishing on stars “is a smart thing to do.”

Reads a lot like the national enquirer.

As I've said before, be careful what you wish for. You may not want to pay the price and retribution will occur if you refuse the offer or refuse to pay.
