Meteor-Scatter Shutter Triggers
I set up an SDR to listen for meteor-scatter pings on VHF, then use a microcontroller to trigger my camera each time a burst hits, building a time-stamped long‑exposure set that I stack into a meteor-rich frame. It turns radio noise into a shutter cue and makes the sky feel like it is answering back.
