ISRO Chairman V Narayanan announced Wednesday that the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) satellite, the first ever jointly developed by the two space agencies, is set to be declared operational on Friday.
"Entire data calibration has been completed, and we will have a conclave on November 7 to declare the satellite operational," Narayanan confirmed at the Emerging Science, Technology and Innovation Conclave (ESTIC). He added, "All the data is very outstanding... it is going to be a highly useful satellite".
