| Description |
June 19th marked the 15th anniversary of the launch of the ocean winds satellite QuikScat. Built in less than 12 months for a three-year mission, QuikScat has watched ocean wind patterns for 15 years and improved weather forecasting worldwide. Despite a partial instrument failure in 2009, it continues to provide calibration data to international partners.
