NASA-ISRO NISAR Satellite Captures Detailed Radar Image of East Antarctica
The NASA-ISRO NISAR satellite has released detailed radar images of East Antarctica's frozen landscape, revealing a striking shape resembling a giant bird or hummingbird. Using L-band radar, the satellite captured variations in ice and terrain, with colors indicating different polarizations of microwave signals reflecting from ice, snow, and rock. This data helps scientists monitor glacier movement and study environmental features. Both Indian and US teams will continue processing and releasing further radar data from NISAR's instruments.
