NISAR mission by ISRO and NASA likely postponed to next year
• The NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) mission, a collaboration between India and the United States, has faced delays and will not launch this year.
• Originally planned for launch in the first half of 2023, the mission encountered issues with a 12-meter antenna, necessitating its return to the United States for upgrades.
• Despite hopes for a second-half launch, ISRO's plans submitted to the Lok Sabha indicate that the mission is unlikely to proceed this year.
