Summary
AUOS-Z-I-IK 1 launched on a Soviet Space Program Kosmos-3M (11K65M) from 132/2, Plesetsk Cosmodrome, Russian Federation on February 27, 1979. It was Soviet Space Program's 1,289th launch, 16th this year and humanity's 2,194th orbital launch attempt. It was the 198th Kosmos-3M (11K65M) flight and the 3rd this year. The payload was bound for low Earth orbit (LEO). The tracked orbit of Interkosmos-19, one of 3 catalogued objects, from March 13, 1979, was 507 × 996 km inclined 74.0°. 3 objects from this launch are catalogued, one of them a payload.
