Difference between Bhangmeter and Vela (satellite)

Bhangmeter vs. Vela (satellite)

A bhangmeter is a non-imaging radiometer installed on reconnaissance and navigation satellites to detect atmospheric nuclear detonations and determine the yield of the nuclear weapon. Vela was the name of a group of satellites developed as the Vela Hotel element of Project Vela by the United States to detect nuclear detonations to monitor compliance with the 1963 Partial Test Ban Treaty by the Soviet Union.

Similarities between Bhangmeter and Vela (satellite)

Bhangmeter and Vela (satellite) have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Global Positioning System, Nuclear weapons testing, Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, Photodiode, Silicon, Vela Incident, X-ray.

Global Positioning System

The Global Positioning System (GPS), originally Navstar GPS, is a satellite-based radionavigation system owned by the United States government and operated by the United States Air Force.
