High-Level Project Summary
The project discusses about the invetion of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) , different types of satellites SARs are connected and the functionality of SARs. The project also mentions about the purpose of SARs and the clarity of images obtained through SARs compared to that obtained from conventional beam scanning radars. It further elaborates the positive relationship between the size of the aperture and the resolution of the image received. Finally, the projects speaks about the improvement in the resolution of the images received through SARs.

Detailed Project Description
The project focuses on increasing the awareness of students about the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) . It's a genuine effort made to trigger the enthusiasm of school children about this amazing technology.
The video simply provides an outline of the SAR. Though it does not discuss critical details about the SAR technology, it provides some interesting points for the viewer. I am confident that the viewers of the video will take it to the next level.
The project was designed using "Kinemaster" platform.
Space Agency Data
Details about "Remote sensing technology" were obtained from the website of "NASA Earth data"
Hackathon Journey
The project was completed by myself. It was a new experience for me to take part in a Space App competition.
In the process, I learned about various types of satellites that are used to connect SAR s.
Main challenges faced by me are finding the contents and suitable images. Also, time management was challenging since the entire project and the demo were handled by myself.
I would like to thank NASA for giving me this opportunity to showcase our talents.
