Summary
Gorizont 27 launched on a Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center Proton K/DM-2 from 81/23 (81L), Baikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan on November 27, 1992. It was Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center's 7th launch, 7th this year and humanity's 3,772nd orbital launch attempt. It was the 61st Proton K/DM-2 flight and the 7th this year. The payload was bound for Geostationary Orbit (Direct-GEO). Gorizont, one of 6 catalogued objects, reached a 36,476 × 36,531 km orbit inclined 1.5°. 6 objects from this launch are catalogued, one of them a payload.
