That was my first thought, too. I hope it (drumroll) flies under trumps radar.
[...] the motion of ice sheets and glaciers, the deformation of land due to earthquakes, volcanoes, and landslides, and changes in forest and wetland ecosystems down to fractions of an inch. It also will aid decision-makers in fields as diverse as disaster response, infrastructure monitoring, and agriculture.
Here's what it will see: the upper atmosphere as this administration has it put into a controlled burn because facts get in the way of their narrative.
That's cool, though.
Wow, that's really cool tech!
Yet more cool tech from NASA, a great example of international cooperation with the fast rising India space Industry, to track information action vital to modern life on earth. A real contribution to humanity
Yeah, waiting for it to be shut down as “woke”
This is under Indias control, no?
