Radar is a tool that helps software makers find Reddit threads where potential customers discuss problems their product could solve. It generates ready-to-post replies based on the user's website, respects community rules, and requires manual posting to avoid account bans.
The European Space Agency will proceed independently with its Envision Venus orbiter mission after NASA determined it cannot provide a planned radar instrument due to budget constraints from proposed science funding cuts by the Trump administration. Envision will map Venus's surface at higher resolution than previous missions using radar to penetrate the planet's sulfuric acid clouds and search for signs of volcanism. NASA's reduced planetary science budget is forcing the agency to prioritize its own missions and reduce support for international partnerships.
