NASA was able to track the sound of the meteor as it fell; The sound is muffled and mysterious, but NASA hopes that it will help to understand the movement of meteors in space that consistently approach the Earth
One of the pessimistic theories among NASA scientists predicts the destruction of the earth. It is theorized to be destroyed by a collision with a giant meteor. From the observations of the scientists it is known that every hour about 80 meteorites fall into the Earth's atmosphere. Because of this, the scientists try to know everything possible about their trajectory.
The meteor, looks like a big flame leaving behind a trail of fire. its size
Huge, sometimes more than the earth. Recently there was a breakthrough in the field after scientists were able to also capture the sounds produced by a meteor while falling.
The discovery was made possible thanks to the radio wave tracking system installed by NASA. The radio waves were able to trace the fast trajectory of the meteorite. And more than that, to capture a muffled and mysterious sound every time a meteor plunged. The system was placed at the Marshall Space Center in Alabama, where the echo produced by the meteor is recorded, listened to and analyzed.
The new device can receive video signals up to 67 MHz with the help of a special radar that transmits the video waves of the meteor as well as the radio waves.
From an observation made in recent years of the meteor shower, it is possible to see the meteor at its peak, more than two seconds before it quickly falls again. In the XNUMXs the meteor would peak quickly and fall slowly. The scientists attribute the change to the fact that the movement of the meteors is apparently closer to the Earth's orbit.
