NISAR satellite, a groundbreaking NASA-ISRO collaboration, launches July 30 from Sriharikota. This Earth observation mission will scan the planet every 12 days using advanced SAR technology.
The upcoming launches will set the stage for Chandrayaan-4, boost India’s navigational capabilities and demonstrate its docking and human spaceflight prowess.
NISAR is Low Earth Orbit observatory being developed to map the globe in 12 days, and gather data that will provide insights into Earth’s ecosystems, ice mass, sea level rise, etc.
NISAR will map Earth's land & ice surfaces to provide insights. Delay is due to need for special thermal coating for satellite's hardware components, so they can withstand high temp.
Once launched, the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar satellite is likely to be one of the most powerful Earth observation satellites, and the most expensive one till date.
Nick Jonas is not trying to modernise the mangalsutra, but his gesture shows that choices can be equal. If commitment must be flaunted, it need not be gendered.
