DSP 1
1970-093A
The DSP 1 satellite was launched by Titan IIIC from Cape Kennedy on 1970 Nov 6. The Transtage suffered a guidance failure which stranded the DSP in a sub-synchronous orbit, but testing was carried out and as late as 1973 Jun it continued to observe targets of opportunity when near apogee.
