UFO’s/Nature Weather Instruments Logan
UFO Mistakes • A lot of people see flashes of light and believe it’s a UFO. Most of them are laser lights or lightning. Other sightings are satellites or weather balloons. • Most sightings are fake, usually they are Photoshop or just home-made. Similarities
Lightning Rods • Lightning rods are usually found at the top of a tall building. • Lightning rods are made so they are the tallest things out there so trees and buildings don’t get struck and caught on fire. • More than 2 million strikes hit a lightning rod every year.
Barometer • The barometer is used to check what air pressure is at a certain time. • Barometers checkHIGH Pressure and LOW PRESSURE! • An aneroid barometer uses a small, flexible metal box called an aneroid cell. This aneroid capsule cell is made from an alloy of beryllium and copper.
Weather Balloon • Weather balloons are used for measuring particular parameters such as determining the ozone concentration. • When the facts are found the balloon sends it back to a radar. • A weather balloon is inflated to a volume of 25.5 CM.
Satellites • Satellites are one of the most important weather tracking devices. • Satellites are used most for tracking hurricanes and tropical storms. • Sometimes satellitesget hit by meteorites and fall out of orbit and enter Earth’s atmosphere. • More than 100 satellites have hit cars in the U.S. They usually burn up before reaching ground.
