Answer:

This phenomenon is known as <em>Refraction.</em>

Explanation:

Light waves change speed when they pass across the boundary between two substances with a different density, such as air and glass. This causes them to change direction, an effect called refraction.

At the boundary between two transparent substances:

the light slows down going into a denser substance, and the ray bends towards the normal

the light speeds up going into a less dense substance, and the ray bends away from the normal

What are meteors and where do they come from?
Verizon [17]
A meteor is a small body of matter from outer space that enters the earth's atmosphere, becoming incandescent as a result of friction and appearing as a streak of light. Most meteoroids come from the asteroid belt, having been perturbed by the gravitational influences of planets, but others are particles from comets, giving rise to meteor showers. Some meteoroids are fragments from bodies such as Mars or our moon, that have been thrown into space by an impact.
