Kosmos 467 (Russian: Космос 467 meaning Cosmos 467), known before launch as DS-P1-Yu No.45, was a Soviet satellite which was launched in 1971 as part of the Dnepropetrovsk Sputnik programme. It was a 325-kilogram (717 lb) spacecraft, which was built by the Yuzhnoye Design Bureau, and was used as a radar calibration target for anti-ballistic missile tests.[1]
Launch
[edit]Kosmos 467 was successfully launched into low Earth orbit on 17 December 1971, with the rocket lifting off at 10:39:58 UTC.[2] The launch took place from Site 133/1 at the Plesetsk Cosmodrome,[3] and used a Kosmos-2I 63SM carrier rocket.
Orbit
[edit]Upon reaching orbit, it was assigned its Kosmos designation, and received the International Designator 1971-113A.[4] The North American Aerospace Defense Command assigned it the catalogue number 05704.
Kosmos 467 was the forty-ninth of seventy nine DS-P1-Yu satellites to be launched,[1] and the forty-fourth of seventy two to successfully reach orbit.[5] It was operated in an orbit with a perigee of 262 kilometres (163 mi), an apogee of 450 kilometres (280 mi), 70.9 degrees of inclination, and an orbital period of 91.7 minutes.[1][6] It remained in orbit until it decayed and reentered the atmosphere on 18 April 1972.[6]
