Towards More Efficient Use of Radar-Altimeter Data
Twenty years ago, experimental altimeters on NASA's Skylab and Geos-3 were already demonstrating the potential of such instrumentation. This led in turn to the development and launch by NASA in July 1978 of the Seasat oceanographic satellite mission. Both Geos-3 and Seasat were very successful in their pioneering missions, but were limited somewhat by poor coverage in the case of Geos-3 and an abnormally short mission duration in Seasat's case.

Space-2020-Round-Table-synthesis-report.pdf
The Space 2020 Round Table, held on The Round Table on 28 and 29 June 1995 at ESTEC, was organised jointly by ESA's Technical Directorate and Associate Directorate for Strategy, Planning and International Policy, as an interactive workshop. The participants at the Round Table presented position papers for discussion in four selected areas of relevance to the Space 2020 study, covering potential for cost reduction, new services and potential synergies, trends in research and development and the role of ESA and international cooperation.
