The Camera That’s Mapping Earth’s Every Move NISAR Just a week prior at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, India, Nisar (short for NASA–ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar): an exceptional new Earth-observing Satellite soared into orbit on July 30. Being one of the most ambitious joint space programs, the United States and India had collaborated to launch this satellite, not to explore other planets nor search for extraterrestrial life.

Humanity’s Return to the Moon’s South Pole A New Era Begins Since the last Apollo mission, humans have not stepped foot on the moon for over half a century. But now NASA is planning a new return to the moon, though at the same destination, the nature of this mission is completely different compared to fifty years ago.
