NISAR, a satellite developed by India and the US, was launched to observe minute changes in the Earth's crust and glaciers, anticipating natural hazards.

The NISAR satellite, launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Center, will map the Earth's minimal changes, helping to anticipate natural and man-made hazards. Equipped with advanced technology, NISAR will monitor land movements and melting glaciers, providing essential data for adjusting agricultural policies. The project, a collaboration between NASA and ISRO, underscores the advances of India's space program, which has included missions to Mars and the Moon.
