Detailed Description

Models a single meteor.

Control of the meteor rate is performed in the MeteorMgr class. Once created, a meteor object only lasts for some amount of time, and then "dies", after which, the update() member returns false. The live/dead status of a meteor may also be determined using the isAlive member.
