₹13,000-crore ISRO-NASA NISAR satellite deploys world’s largest antenna reflector in space:

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and NASA’s joint mission NISAR, the ₹13,000-crore Earth observation satellite launched 17 days ago, successfully unfurled its massive antenna reflector, NASA confirmed. The giant umbrella-like structure remained folded until its 30-foot (9-metre) boom was deployed and securely locked in place. This antenna is the largest reflector ever deployed on a NASA mission and will enhance the satellite’s capability for high-resolution Earth navigation and monitoring.
