The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Monday successfully launched a revolutionary spy satellite that will help security agencies in monitoring internal and external security across the border.
RISAT-2 is India's first all-weather spy satellite, while Anusat is an experimental mini communication satellite developed by Anna University in Chennai.
RISAT-2 will enhance India`s capability in the management of disasters such as floods, cyclones and landslips. It weighs 300 kg and has an all-weather, 24-hour capability for imaging the earth. It can be used for defence purposes also since it has a synthetic aperture radar (SAR), built by the Israel Aerospace Industries.
