How will NASA-ISRO’s historic mission NISAR revolutionize Earth monitoring?
A joint mission of NASA and ISRO called NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) will be launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC SHAR) in Andhra Pradesh’s Sriharikota at 17:40 hours IST. The satellite will use two different frequencies (NASA’s L-band and ISRO’s S-band), which will allow it to scan the entire Earth in 12 days while capturing subtle and accurate images of the planet in all conditions
