No.
Its frankly hilarious they think they can seriously put the words "SAR imagery from the world's largest SAR satellite constellation" on their homepage.
If money were being charged for it, some might call it "false advertising".
It looks to me more like a VERY limited subset of images from the satellite constellation in question.
Either that, or the constellation in question is minuscule.
Either way, something doesn't add up.
I’m all for stomping out bait and switch, but "SAR imagery from the world's largest SAR satellite constellation" does not imply that you will get all the imagery they have. Same as if i describe a liquid as “water from the Atlantic” it need not be a particularly impressive amount of water.

They are in the business of selling a particular type of data. They are not incentivised to give away their product for free. What you see here is the “first hit is free” kind of sample.
