Shooting stars is a minimal effort mining activity that takes players across Gielinor finding crashed stars to train Mining and generate Stardust, which can be spent at Dusuri's Star Shop in the Mining guild. Stardust can be exchanged for soft clay packs (76.00/) or bags full of gems (74.12/). Although F2P players can participate in shooting stars, they can only exchange their stardust on a members world.

Shooting stars can be located by yourself with a telescope in your POH, or by coordinating with other players. Whilst the lowest sized stars can be mined at level 10, they will always spawn at size 6 or above, requiring at least 60 mining until they deplete to lower sizes.

Players can expect anywhere from 600 - 950 stardust per hour depending on Mining level, type of pickaxe, attentiveness, and how quickly you can find new stars.
