1967-015A
KH-4A Mission 1039 was launched on 1967 Feb 22 by TAT Agena D from Vandenberg. The initial orbit was 180 x 360 km x 80.0 deg; Mission 1039-1 was completed after 5 days on Feb 27, and Mission 1039-2 was completed on Mar 4 after a further 5 days. Both film buckets were successfully recovered. Light from the horizon camera affected the main camera film on mission 1039-1, and there was a lot of cloud cover and heavy snow, but overall the data was reported to be good.
