Coplanar with K1365. The satellite survived after the Kosmos-1365 and Kosmos-1412 missions were completed, and was prepared for orbit raise on Dec 28. However the orbit raise failed to happen. The radioactive fuel core was ejected, and it and the main spacecraft reentered separately. Kosmos-1402, the reactor and main propulsion unit attached together, reentered over the Indian Ocean on Jan 23 while the uranium fuel core reentered over the South Atlantic on Feb 7.
