Moon-based SAR expands our capabilities of watching and understanding the Earth. This book explains the Moon-Earth observation geometry, generic parameters, image focusing, and outlook using the Moon-based SAR. It an essential reference to those interested in planetary and Earth sciences, especially when dealing with high-orbit SAR studies.
