How would NISAR expand our understanding of the Earth?
How would NISAR expand our understanding of the Earth? On July 30, the India-US space collaboration crossed a historic milestone with the successful launch of NISAR, or the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar satellite, a flagship earth observation mission jointly developed by the two nations' space programmes. It is the first satellite to use radars of two frequencies — the L-band radar by NASA and the S-band radar by ISRO — to continuously monitor the earth's surface. NISAR is expected to provide unprecedented data on land deformation, ice-sheet dynamics, forest biomass, and natural disasters like earthquakes and floods. With its high-resolution, all-weather, day-night imaging capabilities, NISAR aims to enhance climate resilience, agricultural monitoring, and disaster response. Beyond science, NISAR also holds commercial promise to enable new data services, geospatial analytics, and early-warning systems across sectors such as insurance, infrastructure, and agriculture.

Giant mysterious circles seen in Saudi desert: Here's what they are
A new image captured by the European Space Agency's Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellite has sparked curiosity online with its dramatic show of perfectly round, brightly coloured formations scattered across the barren desert of northern Saudi they may appear mysterious from above, these giant circles are very much man-made, and part of a modern agricultural image, taken through radar technology from three separate months, October 2024 (blue), January 2025 (green), and May 2025 (red), overlays the data to highlight changes in land use over These psychedelic rings are, in fact, central-pivot irrigation fields near the town of Tabarjal, nestled within the Wadi As Sirhan basin. The area pictured lies within the Wadi As Sirhan basin and shows how Saudi Arabia's desert is used for agriculture. (Photo: ESA) Each circular farm measures approximately one kilometer wide, and at the center lies a well that taps into underground rotating sprinklers revolve around the well, watering the land uniformly and creating picture-perfect rings of cultivation. This system is crucial in Saudi Arabia's dry climate, where rainfall is scarce and most of the land consists of arid desert featuring no permanent rivers or radar instead of traditional photography, Sentinel-1 enables consistent imaging regardless of weather or lighting, allowing scientists to monitor agricultural activity across the colourful composite reveals not just the presence of crops but their growth stages, irrigation patterns, and seasonal the harsh climate, crops such as wheat, alfalfa, and vegetables are grown here, made possible by careful water management strategies. However, experts warn that the aquifers supplying these systems are not being replenished, making sustainability a growing concern. The circles, each approximately one kilometre wide, are formed by central-pivot irrigation systems. (Photo: ESA) The surrounding areas on the image, shown in white, grey, or black, indicate either bare land, desert sand, or non-vegetated largest urban feature visible is Tabarjal, appearing as a white blotch in the top right. The town serves as a vital agricultural hub, supporting surrounding rural communities and playing a key role in northern Saudi Arabia's food first appeared as mysterious alien-like symbols in the sand are actually a stunning demonstration of how human ingenuity and satellite technology can turn even the driest landscapes into productive farmland.- Ends
