NASA Launches Groundbreaking Mission to Uncover Earth’s Crust with Precision Radar Mapping

With NISAR, scientists will have a spaceborne tool to study environmental changes at a very high resolution, providing a new level of insight into the Earth’s processes and natural disasters. The investment in this technology is expected to be well worth it, as the satellite’s data could have far-reaching impacts on our understanding of the planet and our ability to cope with its challenges.
