The U.S.S.R. launched Meteor 18 meteorological satellite from Plesetsk into orbit with an 891-km apogee, 863-km perigee, 102.5-min period, and 81.2° inclination. The satellite would photograph clouds and their underlying surface and study the distribution of precipitation and ice zones and the influence of corpuscular flows on upper layers of the atmosphere for rapid weather data supply.
