- The University of Texas at Austin Center for Space Research was established in
1981 under the direction of Dr. Byron D. Tapley. The mission of the Center is
to conduct research in orbit determination, space geodesy, the Earth and its
environment, exploration of the solar system, as well as expanding the
scientific applications of space systems data.
Results of CSR's research have provided solutions to questions associated with
fishery, agriculture, mapping ocean circulation, improving models of the
Earth's gravity field, environmental impacts of oil spills, oil exploration and
drilling operations, and weather forecasting.
