EricFielding, 5 months ago NISAR, the soon-to-launch radar satellite from NASA and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), will measure key Earth vital signs, from the health of wetlands to ground deformation by volcanoes to the dynamics of land and sea ice. Short for NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar, NISAR will provide the most comprehensive picture to date of motion and deformation of frozen surfaces in Earth’s ice- and snow-covered environments, collectively known as the cryosphere. https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/this-us-indian-satellite-will-monitor-earths-changing-frozen-regions
