There is another page with similar information that can be found at Meteor Shields. Please read the delete reason on there if you wish to help.

The Meteor Shield prevents meteors from falling around the shield. Once placed, it will take a moment to charge. You can bypass the initial charging sequence by right-clicking the shield with a Meteor Chip. Once charged, it will protect your land from meteors.

Fully upgraded Meteor Shield

You can increase the radius of the shield by using Red Meteor Gems to upgrade the shield. 4 Red Meteor Gems can be used to fully upgrade the shield. They are used by right clicking on the shield with the gem in hand. Once 4 gems are used, the shield will be at full power and it will shoot a purple beam into the sky. This beam will change color every time it deflects a meteor, depending upon which type of Meteor it just blocked and who is the owner of the Meteor Shield.

You can test to see if your land is protected by using a Protected Land Tester.
