NASA Administrator Dr. James C. Fletcher and Chairman of France's Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales Jacques-Louis Lions signed a memorandum of understanding for a joint satellite oceanographic mission. The mission, called TOPEX/POSEIDON, which would chart ocean topography and observe ocean circulation on a global scale, was scheduled for a late 1991 launch. The TOPEX/POSEIDON mission would be part of the international World Climate Research Program. (NASA Release 87-41)
