Kosmos 467(Russian:Космос 467meaningCosmos 467), known before launch asDS-P1-Yu No.45,was aSovietsatellitewhich was launched in 1971 as part of theDnepropetrovsk Sputnikprogramme. It was a 325-kilogram (717 lb) spacecraft, which was built by theYuzhnoye Design Bureau,and was used as a radar calibration target foranti-ballistic missiletests.[1]
Launch
[edit]Kosmos 467 was successfully launched intolow Earth orbiton 17 December 1971, with the rocket lifting off at 10:39:58 UTC.[2]The launch took place fromSite 133/1at thePlesetsk Cosmodrome,[3]and used aKosmos-2I63SMcarrier rocket.
Orbit
[edit]Upon reaching orbit, it was assigned itsKosmosdesignation, and received theInternational Designator1971-113A.[4]TheNorth American Aerospace Defense Commandassigned it thecatalogue number05704.
Kosmos 467 was the forty-ninth of seventy nineDS-P1-Yusatellites to be launched,[1]and the forty-fourth of seventy two to successfully reach orbit.[5]It was operated in an orbit with aperigeeof 262 kilometres (163 mi), anapogeeof 450 kilometres (280 mi), 70.9 degrees ofinclination,and anorbital periodof 91.7 minutes.[1][6]It remained in orbit until itdecayedand reentered the atmosphere on 18 April 1972.[6]
