The line in blue is the one with the error.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

I think you confused how to form CFrame.new, read the Understanding CFrames article that should help.

(or use CFrame.Angles)

The issue is that you’re defining RandomMeteor as math.random(1, #Meteors), so RandomMeteor is a number, not a BasePart.

Assuming you’re just trying to fetch a random meteor from the Meteors array, you should change the following:

- local RandomMeteor = math.random(1, #Meteors)
+ local RandomMeteor = Meteors[math.random(1, #Meteors)]
