It is shown that communication satellites can provide significant economic benefits to shipping company operations and alleviate the problems of distress alerting, search and rescue, and losses due to collisions, groundings, and heavy weather damage. Emphasis is placed upon both the application of space technology to minimize present service deficiencies and the costs and benefits of this new application. It is concluded that while maritime service satellites appear to be viable technically and economically, there is a substantial amount of analysis, definition, and development work yet to be accomplished.
