Trivia

• A meteor, or shooting star, is a bright streak produced when a meteoroid enters Earth's atmosphere and ignites due to friction with air molecules, creating a visible light trail. This phenomenon usually occurs in the mesosphere at altitudes of 76 to 100 kilometers.<ref>Wikipedia: Meteor</ref>
• RSI has partnered with PAW to set a new standard for sustainable shipbuilding with the release of the Meteor. Designed with a commitment to protect [[StarCitizen::Category:Fauna|wildlife]], preserve habitats, and ensure clean materials throughout the entire manufacturing process.<ref>"RSI has partnered with PAW to set a new standard for sustainable shipbuilding with the release of the new Meteor.
