Getting to the bottom of things: find water beneath the surface of Mars, locate ice layers on the south pole of Moon and measure surface structures even through gas atmospheres which cannot be displayed by optical systems. The Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Ground Penetration Radar (GPR) technology enables researchers to delve deeper into new worlds.

By scanning the planet's surface or by penetrating surfaces, high-quality two-dimensional images of surfaces as well as measurements and mappings of soil layers can be generated. These provide the basis for valuable geophysical, topographic and geological findings.
