Kosmos 144
Kosmos 144 was launched February 28, 1967 and was on of nine weather satellites launched by the Soviet Union between 1965 and 1969.[1] This fit the Kosmos satellite designation due to it being a science experiment.The launch of the Kosmos 144 satellite occurred after the success of the Kosmos 122 another meteorological satellite that was launched the June before.[2] The Kosmos 144 differed from the 122 mission with the rocket which was an 8A92M Rocket that was used to get the satellite to orbit and the inclination that the satellite was left at.[3] The Kosmos 144 was also soon joined by the Kosmos 156 which due to the orbit at which the satellites where positioned made it to where one of the satellites would pass over every six hours.[4] The Kosmos 144 would soon be replaced by the Meteor (satellite) program.
