It can be used to detect <a title=\"Aircraft\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Aircraft\">aircraft<\/a>, ships, <a title=\"Spacecraft\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Spacecraft\">spacecraft<\/a>, <a class=\"mw-redirect\" title=\"Guided missiles\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Guided_missiles\">guided missiles<\/a>, <a title=\"Motor vehicle\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Motor_vehicle\">motor vehicles<\/a>, <a title=\"Weather radar\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Weather_radar\">weather formations<\/a>, and terrain. The radar dish (or antenna) transmits pulses of radio waves or <a title=\"Microwave\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Microwave\">microwaves<\/a> that bounce off any object in their path. The object returns a tiny part of the wave&#8217;s energy to a dish or antenna that is usually located at the same site as the <a title=\"Transmitter\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Transmitter\">transmitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Radar was secretly developed by several nations before and during <a title=\"World War II\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/World_War_II\">World War II<\/a>.
