NASA developed a sophisticated microwave radiometer to measure soil moisture levels globally. It took years to create and involves advanced signal processing to filter out interference. It will launch in late 2014 on the SMAP spacecraft along with a synthetic aperture radar. The instrument listens to microwave emissions from Earth and uses new algorithms and hardware to detect and remove unwanted radio signals from other sources. This allows it to provide more accurate soil moisture data than previous missi
