1
00:00:03,236 --> 00:00:06,306
NISAR is a collaboration between NASA

2
00:00:06,406 --> 00:00:09,275
and the Indian Space Research
Organisation.

3
00:00:15,615 --> 00:00:18,885
NISAR is a radar satellite mission

4
00:00:19,085 --> 00:00:21,888
to measure earthquakes and volcanoes, ice

5
00:00:21,888 --> 00:00:26,026
sheets and sea ice, forests, ecosystems
and any other thing

6
00:00:26,026 --> 00:00:28,962
that's
changing at the scale of a centimeter

7
00:00:28,962 --> 00:00:29,796
on the earth.

8
00:00:36,369 --> 00:00:38,972
We are working together
and it's a great mission.

9
00:00:38,972 --> 00:00:40,073
It is going to be with

10
00:00:40,073 --> 00:00:43,543
the two different kinds of radar images
that it is going to take

11
00:00:43,977 --> 00:00:46,646
and give a lot of science data
for all the science

12
00:00:46,646 --> 00:00:49,682
community who are going to look at Earth
in a different perspective.

13
00:00:49,983 --> 00:00:54,421
So we can effectively make three
dimensional movies of the deformation

14
00:00:54,421 --> 00:00:57,690
or the movement of the earth
down to millimeter

15
00:00:57,690 --> 00:00:59,426
or centimeter scales.

16
00:01:05,665 --> 00:01:08,201
NISAR is being built as two parts.

17
00:01:08,201 --> 00:01:13,907
The payload is being built at JPL,
and the second part will be a spacecraft,

18
00:01:13,907 --> 00:01:16,443
which is getting right now
realized that ISRO.

19
00:01:22,649 --> 00:01:23,483
NISAR is going

20
00:01:23,483 --> 00:01:26,853
to get launched
from our launch pad at Sriharikota.

21
00:01:26,853 --> 00:01:31,257
The entire world is excited
to see what comes out of NISAR.

22
00:01:33,059 --> 00:01:34,527
NASA's Earth System Observatory

23
00:01:34,527 --> 00:01:38,398
consists of a series of earth
focused missions that will work together

24
00:01:38,598 --> 00:01:42,602
and complement each other to produce
a holistic 3D view of the earth.

25
00:01:42,702 --> 00:01:45,705
NISAR is going to be the trailblazer
for this observatory.

26
00:01:45,872 --> 00:01:50,043
We're going to learn more about processes
related to climate change and assist

27
00:01:50,043 --> 00:01:50,910
decision makers

28
00:01:50,910 --> 00:01:54,581
and planners to mitigate natural hazards
and manage natural resources.

29
00:01:55,115 --> 00:01:59,219
These data will make a major difference
in understanding the earth

30
00:01:59,219 --> 00:02:02,622
and helping future generations
live sustainable

31
00:02:02,622 --> 00:02:03,389
lives.

32
00:02:09,262 --> 00:02:12,198
NISAR is a mix of the two cultures,

33
00:02:12,198 --> 00:02:15,201
and it's nice to see that
we are almost the same.

34
00:02:15,201 --> 00:02:18,204
I'm sure the outcome is going to be
something beautiful.

35
00:02:18,371 --> 00:02:22,442
We have taken the best of both the worlds
and try to put into NISAR

36
00:02:22,542 --> 00:02:25,979
because we see something
very beautiful getting realized every day.
