On August 10,1992, the TOPEX/Poseidon satellite was launched from the Guiana Space Center in Kourou, French Guiana. The spacecraft's mission was to provide a 3 to 5 year look at the changing topography of the world's oceans. The information generated by the mission is used by scientists to help us better understand the ocean's role in the global climate. The goal of this CD-ROM is to provide a comprehensive look at the TOPEX/Poseidon mission and spacecraft. The CD contains over an hour of digital video, audio, images, and text captions which describe everything from the impetus for the mission to the results we've obtained thus far. The CD is divided into the following seven sections: Section 1: Mission History and Background Section 2: Mission Description Section 3: Spacecraft Section 4: How the Measurement System Works Section 5: Mission Operations Section 6: What WeÕve Learned Section 7: Science Data
