Dumb OS question

I recently found an ancient copy of QNX, which seems to be a light unix like
OS.

Looking on the WEB, I found that current versions are still around, but
marketed as a "Real Time" OS. The 80's documentation I have says nothing
about real time.

My dumb question: What is a real time operating system?
