Only Scientific Instrument???

According to the intro, the SeaWiFS is the ONLY scientific instrument on the OrbView? So I guess the rest of the stuff on it is just toys?? I'm prett sure a multispectral sensor array could meet the definition of "scientific instrument". Sorry if this is the SeaWiFS claim to fame but this statement is just wrong. 132.38.190.22 (talk) 20:37, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The above comment is 100% incorrect. SeaWiFS was indeed the only scientific payload on the SeaStar spacecraft (later renamed OrbView-2). Information about SeaWiFS and its enormous contribution to science can be found at http://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/SeaWiFS/. Fundamentally, SeaWiFS is the benchmark for ocean color radiometers. The "rest of the stuff" is not just toys, as the reviewer questioned, is the spacecraft that supports the science payload. These typically provide power, attitude control, data storage, data transmission, components for thermal control etc. Finally, many things can be used as a scientific instrument - a simple ruler fits the bill well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gelbstoff (talk • contribs) 03:50, 12 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
