Assalamu Alaikum/Peace be upon you,

The article mentions:

�Meteors are useful for meteorology and weather forcasting as we can measure atmospheric density as well as wind speed and direction by measuring the decay rate of a meteor's trail.�

Perhaps we may conclusively explore it further, applying other reliable sources and means at our disposal. Regardless of the outcome of such an investigation, the primary objective to post the article was to contemplate over one of the countless blessings of the Creator and the Sustainer of the universe. May Allah (God) guide us all.

Peace

Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?

Quote Meteors are useful for meteorology and weather forecasting.

Ummm, no they aren't.  At first I thought this was a joke, but apparently it needs some explaining.
 
The words "meteor" and "meteorology" share the same Greek origin, but they have nothing to do with one another aside from that.  Meteorology is the study of weather, and meteors (rocks falling from space) have absolutely nothing to do with weather.  (Well, aside from a few huge "extinction-level" meteor impacts in the mostly distant past that have been violent enough to cause planet-wide effects, but that's a whole 'nother story.)

They might be just rocks but they are still useful in forecasting our weather and climate that makes us leave peacefully and in comfort.

Assalamu Alaikum/Greetings,
 

I would rather be more concerned with the fact that meteors are useful for meteorology and weather forecasting as mentioned in the article.

The Creator of the universe, Allah (God), is helping and blessing the mankind in so many ways.

Peace
