Kosmos 327 (Russian: Космос 327 meaning Cosmos 327), also known as DS-P1-I No.8 was a satellite which was used as a radar target for anti-ballistic missile tests. It was launched by the Soviet Union in 1970 as part of the Dnepropetrovsk Sputnik programme.[1]
Launch
It was launched aboard a Kosmos-2I 63SM rocket,[2] from Site 133/1 at Plesetsk. The launch occurred at 14:39:56 UTC on 18 March 1970.[3]
Orbit
Kosmos 327 was placed into a low Earth orbit with a perigee of 280 kilometres (170 mi), an apogee of 819 kilometres (509 mi), 71 degrees of inclination, and an orbital period of 95.7 minutes.[1] It decayed from orbit on 19 January 1971.[4]
Kosmos 327 was the eighth of nineteen DS-P1-I satellites to be launched.[1] Of these, all reached orbit successfully except the seventh.[5]
