Summary
Geo-IK 5 launched on a Soviet Space Program Tsiklon-3 from 32/2, Plesetsk Cosmodrome, Russian Federation on August 8, 1984. It was Soviet Space Program's 1,825th launch, 66th this year and humanity's 2,859th orbital launch attempt. It was the 25th Tsiklon-3 flight and the 4th this year. The payload was bound for low Earth orbit (LEO). Kosmos-1589, one of 2 catalogued objects, reached a 1,509 × 1,534 km orbit inclined 82.7°. 2 objects from this launch are catalogued, one of them a payload.
