Atlassian MCP Server vs Meteors
A side-by-side look at the Atlassian MCP Server and Meteors MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Atlassian MCP Server for version control work over a hosted endpoint; choose Meteors for aerospace & astrodynamics as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

Meteors tools 3
get_fireballsTrack recent meteor impacts and atmospheric explosions detected by US government sensors. Returns impact energy, radiated energy, velocity, altitude, and geographic location.get_close_approachesFind near-Earth asteroids making close approaches within 0.05 AU. Returns object name, approach date, miss distance, velocity, and diameter to identify potentially hazardous objects.get_neo_feedGet near-Earth objects passing Earth during a date range (e.g., "2024-01-01" to "2024-12-31"). Returns asteroid names, sizes, velocities, miss distances, and hazard status.
