Karinate Star

Karina,

Do you know what carina is? It's a sternal bone in birds. It helps the birds in their flight, providing leverage. Some birds don't have it, that's why there are flightless birds.

Carina is also a constellation. It has the second brightest star in the night sky, 'Canopus'.

There may be shooting stars... But there's also a 'Flying Star'...
