You know those “Antarctica Today” posts I’d put up for a while, showing surface melt extent accross Antarctica for every day of the melt season (Oct - April)?
They relied 100% on this data stream. Take it offline, that goes away completely.
Sea ice extent uses it too.

"The NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC) learned yesterday that the Department of Defense (DoD) will stop processing & delivering the Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS) data no later than 30 June 2025."
