India and US set for launch of 'first-of-its-kind' satellite
India and US prepare to launch groundbreaking Nasa-Isro Synthetic Aperture Radar (Nisar) satellite to monitor Earth's surface changes closely. The 'most sophisticated radar ever built' will track land, sea, and ice shifts with high precision using two radar frequencies. Nisar's data will aid disaster preparedness globally and provide crucial insights into natural phenomena and human-induced activities impacting the planet, such as earthquakes, landslides, and climate change.
