Magazine publication title: "The Creatures That Time Forgot." Collected in books, story title: "Frost and Fire." In "The Stories of Ray Bradbury" and at least two other collections.

Here's one: a bunch of astronauts are being propelled in different directions due to their ships demise. they all die one by one, the last turning into a shooting star, which i thought was the title. i can't find it. what the title of this story? help!
