Target the class star and transition the rotation over .8s. You didn't need the brackets on .8s also you need to tell it what it's transitioning, in this case you need to transition 'transform'

.star {
  transition: transform .8s;
}

Found this answer helpful... Apparently, 0.8s is not an acceptable value, but .8s is... go figure :P
