Sriharikota: The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) ticked off an important job from their to-do list. They created an S-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) that will be used in the world s first earth observation satellite using two radars. This mission is a joint effort with NASA and the ISRO-made radar was shipped to them recently.
This is a part of an agreement that was signed by NASA administrator Charles Bolden and the then ISRO chairman named K Radhakrishnan on September 30, 2014, in Toronto, Canada.
