Meteors Overview

Meteors MCP server exposes NASA fireball, near-Earth asteroid, and close-approach data through three MCP tools. It can run through the Pipeworx gateway over streamable HTTP or locally as a stdio package with npx. Use it to inspect recent atmospheric events, identify close asteroid passes, or query near-Earth objects across a date range. The gateway also provides shared Pipeworx tools, while the local package exposes only the Meteors tools.

Primary Use Cases for Meteors:
  • Track recent meteor impacts and atmospheric explosions
  • Find asteroids approaching Earth within 0.05 AU
  • Query near-Earth objects across a date range
  • Summarize asteroid size, velocity, distance, and hazard fields
