Clouds
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Shooting stars (meteors) are only visible at night because they are faint streaks of light caused by meteoroids burning up in Earth's atmosphere. The Sun is only visible during the day, the Moon is visible both day and night, and clouds are visible at any time. The faint nature of meteors requires darkness to be observed clearly.
