Get to know the "extraordinary new capability" that the NISAR satellite represents for the Indian Space Research Organization and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Boasting an ability to see movement unprecedented by any other observation platform, the NISAR satellite is an experimental joint venture between ISRO and NASA, set to launch on February 25, 2022. Together they have developed an cutting-edge remote sensing instrument sensitive to the distinctive electromagnetic radiation signatures of major urban areas and agricultural fields. Its capabilities are going to fuel scientists' understanding of climate and ecosystems globally.

According to Karen St. Germain, Director of the Earth Science Division at NASA's Science Mission Directorate, "Anything that moves, NISAR will see with unprecedented fidelity."

This collaboration and the data provided will strengthen the relationship between the two space agencies and help further research and development for space exploration.
