Hi-resolution and high-precision #-Link-Snipped-# #-Link-Snipped-# developed by Naval Research Laboratory is so awesome that it can track individual hydrometeors 0.5 mm in diameter (a la raindrops). The technology developed can now be used in enhancing the understanding of behavior, dynamics and structure of clouds. This could result in accurate prediction of weather.

The Doppler Radar was initially developed by NASA to detect and track debris shed during the launch of the space shuttle.The radar needs 3MW power to emit 0.22 degree wide beam and range resolution as fine as 0.5 m.Check out further information on #-Link-Snipped-# website.
