Meteor burst communications (MBC), also referred to as meteor scatter communications, [1] is a radio propagation mode that exploits the ionized trails of meteors during atmospheric entry to establish brief communications paths between radio stations up to 2,250 kilometres (1,400 mi) apart. There can be forward-scatter or back-scatter of the ...
Meteor, or MeteorJS, is a partly proprietary, mostly free and open-source isomorphic JavaScript web framework [ 3] written using Node.js. Meteor allows for rapid prototyping and produces cross-platform ( Android, iOS, Web) code. The server-side MongoDB program is the only proprietary component of Meteor and is part of the Meteor download bundle.
Leonids. The Leonids ( / ˈliːənɪdz / LEE-ə-nidz) are a prolific annual meteor shower associated with the comet Tempel–Tuttle, and are also known for their spectacular meteor storms that occur about every 33 years. [ 5] The Leonids get their name from the location of their radiant in the constellation Leo: the meteors appear to radiate ...

Meteor Lake is Intel's codename for the first generation of Intel Core Ultra mobile processors, [3] and was officially launched on December 14, 2023. [4] It is the first generation of Intel mobile processors to use a chiplet architecture which means that the processor is a multi-chip module. [ 3 ]
The Gloster Meteor was the first British jet fighter and the Allies' only jet aircraft to engage in combat operations during the Second World War. [1] The Meteor's development was heavily reliant on its ground-breaking turbojet engines, pioneered by Frank Whittle and his company, Power Jets Ltd. Development of the aircraft began in 1940 ...
Hoba is a tabular body of metal, measuring 2.7×2.7×0.9 m (8 ft 10 in×8 ft 10 in×2 ft 11 in). In 1920, its mass was estimated at 66 tonnes. Erosion, scientific sampling and vandalism reduced its bulk over the years. The remaining mass is estimated at just over 64 tonnes. The meteorite is composed of about 84% iron and 16% nickel, with traces ...
WSJT-X is a computer program used for weak- signal radio communication between amateur radio operators. The program was initially written by Joe Taylor, K1JT, but is now open source and is developed by a small team. The digital signal processing techniques in WSJT-X make it substantially easier for amateur radio operators to employ esoteric ...
