Meteor Counter App

Earth from space with meteors around Earth.

Description

Using our app, people from all walks of life can contribute to authentic NASA research.  The data will help us learn more about meteor showers and the sporadic meteor background by enabling researchers to construct meteor rate profiles. These profiles will help map out the various cosmic debris streams Earth encounters and improve our ability to forecast shower activity.
