SWOT to Create Most Comprehensive Surface Water Map

SWOT is a satellite developed by NASA and the French space agency CNES in partnership with the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and the UK Space Agency. The UK Space Agency provided £12.2 million to British technology company Honeywell to develop Karin's Ka Band duplexer, which routes vital radar signals around the satellite at a frequency never before achieved. SWOT is being done to reveal the clearest water flow on the planet. The mission will also monitor progress by closely tracking the effects of climate change. NASA Administrator Bill Nelson made the following statements on the subject.
