Two British companies are to fly an innovative, low-cost radar satellite - part of which will be knitted on a knitting machine.

The satellite will use radar technology to see through cloud and will even work at night.

The government is keen to see what the knitted satellites can achieve. Part of the funding has come from the National Security Strategic Investment Fund, which backs promising technologies that might be used for national security and defence.
