	Speaker: John Paden, graduate student, EECS, University of Kansas, 2002.
	Modified Transcript: We are using synthetic aperture radar to focus the image of the bedrock. Synthetic aperture radar can be compared to the lens on a camera, it bends the light and delays the light such that everything becomes focused in the final image.
