NASA declared successful the Landsat 3 project launched March 5, 1978, still in operation three years later. Its multispectral scanner (MSS) acquired more than 200,000 images worldwide and the return-beam vidicon (RBV) acquired more than 175,000. The project completed two full years of data acquisition and processing for LACIE, and was continuing the same for AgRISTARS. Some equipment was no longer operative, but MSS operations were judged successful, and some foreign stations were still receiving RBV data in real time. (NASA MOR F-64178-03 [postlaunch] Aug 18/81)
