Launching in late 2020, NISAR is a joint U.S. - India radar satellite mission that will image most of the Earth's subaerial surface every 12 days. NISAR will provide key observations that constrain basic processes in earthquake science, glaciology, hydrology and ecosystem change, as well as situational awareness information for post-disaster response.
