Summary
US-KMO 1 launched on a Soviet Space Program Proton K/DM-2 from 200/39 (200L), Baikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan on February 14, 1991. It was Soviet Space Program's 2,403rd launch, 8th this year and humanity's 3,607th orbital launch attempt. It was the 47th Proton K/DM-2 flight and the 1st this year. The payload was bound for Geostationary Orbit (Direct-GEO). Kosmos-2133, one of 9 catalogued objects, reached a 35,882 × 35,980 km orbit inclined 2.4°. 9 objects from this launch are catalogued, one of them a payload.
