This mission will track changes in Earth's surface with precision
It will provide high-resolution, all-weather imaging of Earth's land and ice surfaces, every 12 days
Will monitor earthquakes, deforestation, glacier movement, and even infrastructure damage from natural disasters
Crucial tool for tracking climate change and studying land deformation caused by geological activity
