NISAR in Orbit

This artist's concept illustrates the NASA–ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) satellite in orbit above Earth. Its enormous deployable radar reflector dominates the composition while the planet's curved horizon stretches into the distance, emphasizing the scale of one of the most advanced Earth-observation missions ever developed.

NISAR uses powerful L-band and S-band radar to measure subtle changes across Earth's surface, helping scientists monitor earthquakes, glaciers, forests, agriculture, volcanoes, and natural hazards. Unlike optical satellites, its radar can observe through clouds and during both day and night, providing continuous global measurements.
