TOPEX/POSEIDON is the second major satellite in NASA's Mission to Planet Earth a coordinated long-term program to study the Earth as a complete environmental system Mission to Planet Earth began in September 1991 with the launch of the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite and continued last March with the ATLAS-1 Space Shuttle mission
ABOUT THE MISSION. An Earth satellite designed to measure ocean surface topography with unprecedented accuracy, Topex/Poseidon spent 13-plus years in orbit improving understanding of ocean circulation and its impact on global climate. In addition to producing the first global views of seasonal current changes, it enabled scientists to forecast...
Artist's rendering of the TOPEX/Poseidon satellite. TOPEX/Poseidon was a joint satellite mission between NASA, the U.S. space agency; and CNES, the French space agency, to map ocean surface topography. Launched on August 10, 1992, it was the first major oceanographic research satellite.
TOPEX/Poseidon used the global perspective available only from space to develop maps of ocean topography showing the barely perceptible hills and valleys of the sea surface. This effort significantly expanded the knowledge developed from shipboard research, which is limited to specific locations.
TOPEX/Poseidon ( Fig. 10) was launched on Aug. 10, 1992, from the ESA launch facility at Kourou, French Guiana, aboard an Ariane 42P launch vehicle. TOPEX/Poseidon data revolutionized the way the global ocean is studied.
