LH is probably right "whole Universe is, in a sense, a single sentient being, and that's it's all interrelating with itself in billions of ways all the time...like the cells in your body do."


However, the nearest star ( other than the sun and any proto-stars in the Kuiper belt) is more than 4 LY away. so I doubt very much if THAT "shooting star" is a direct reply.

There have been a few SF stories based on stars being intelligent beings. Not a point we can prove or disprove at the present time.

The question is, if there are, would they consider US to be intelligent life?
