Forward Scatter Meteor Radar
The Space Environments Team at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center has developed a forward scatter radar system for the monitoring of meteor rates.
-
Shower Observations
The Meteoroid Environment Office observes several meteor showers each year. A more comprehensive study of meteor showers is accomplished when observers world-wide cooperate in the collection of meteor observations.
-
Lunar Impact Monitoring
The Meteoroid Environment Office observes the moon for meteoroid impact flashes about 10 nights per month, when the solar illumination is between 10 and 55 percent. Impact flash detection can be performed with affordable observant and equipment.
