Powerful Situation Awareness Using High Resolution Optical Satellites 'ASNARO-1' and Radar Satellites 'ASNARO-2'

NEXTAR" has been developed as a flexible standard satellite platform, which meets diverse mission requirements such as a science satellite and an earth observation satellite. Regarding a satellite bus for ASNARO series, "NEXTAR" allows us to develop a small, affordable, and sophisticated satellite which has performance comparable to a large satellite. So far, the ASNARO series have two satellites in operation: an optical satellite ASNARO-1 and a SAR satellite ASNARO-2. This paper presents some examples for the purpose of obtaining detail observation with the ASNARO series.
