Abstract

We have analyzed the possibilities of a spacecraft-based meteor search in the atmosphere of planets, focusing on Earth and Mars. This work concentrates on the geometrical conditions and prospects when using the wide-angle camera SPOSH (Smart Panoramic Optical Sensor Head) in varying heights above the surface and incident angles of meteor streams.
