F-SAR Airborne Measurement Campaign in Iceland for VERITAS
Non-vegetated volcanic surfaces are rare on Earth, but are important test beds for preparing an interplanetary mission to Venus, Earth's neighbour, which has a very similar structure and volcanic activity. Both NASA and ESA are planning new SAR missions to Venus in the early 2030s. In August 20...
