Isro's Nisar Satellite Captures Stunning Image of Brahmaputra River

India's Isro has captured a stunning image of the Brahmaputra River, using its latest Earth observation satellite, Nisar. The image shows the vast network of braided channels, islands, and floodplains of the river, and is a testament to the satellite's capabilities. The image was acquired on July 9, 2026, and covers a section of the Brahmaputra near Debitala in Assam, extending towards the West Garo Hills of Meghalaya. The image is a significant achievement for Isro, which has been working to improve its Earth observation capabilities. The Nisar satellite is a major upgrade to India's Earth observation capabilities, and is expected to provide valuable data for a range of applications, including agriculture, water resources, and disaster management.
