Possible impact of Seasat data on PWC marine forecasts / by John Spagnol, satellite development meteorologist.: En57-44/80-009E-PDF

"The Seasat satellite was launched on June 28, 1978. On October 10, 1978, Seasat failed in orbit as a result of a massive short circuit in the electrical system. Fortunately during the three months of orbital operations, the satellite returned a unique and voluminous set of data on the earth's oceans."
