Lunar Orbiter 5

  1967-075A


The last Lunar Orbiter, spacecraft 3 or Lunar Orbiter E, was launched at 2233 on 1967 Aug 1 by Atlas Agena D from Cape Kennedy on azimuth 105.6 deg. Launch mass was 392 kg; mass prior to deorbit burn was 266 kg. The course correction was made at around 1100 on Aug 3. Lunar orbit insertion was at 1648 on Aug 5 into a 196 x 6040 km x 85.0 orbit, lowered on Aug 7 to 100 x 6050 km x 84.6 deg. Imaging was concluded at the end of August. After completion of the photo mission, the remaining Lunar Orbiters were used as tracking targets for the Apollo network. LO-5's orbit was tweaked on Oct 10 to help it survive an eclipse. The extended mission was ended when the nitrogen supply was exhausted. The spacecraft was deorbited on 1968 Jan 31 and impacted the lunar surface at 0758:10.

Biosatellite 1

  1966-114A


Biosatellite I (Biosatellite A), spacecraft 302, was launched at 1920 on 1966 Dec 14 by Delta G from LC17 at Cape Kennedy. Orbit insertion was at 1929 into a 90.4 min, 295 x 309 km x 33.5 deg orbit. The reentry vehicle carried an experiment capsule with an assortment of small biological specimens. Return was scheduled for Dec 17 on orbit 47; the adapter section separated successfully but the retro motor failed to fire and the reentry vehicle remained in orbit, reentering on 1967 Feb 15 and landing in the ocean near Australia. A search was carried out but the capsule was not recovered. The adapter section reentered on 1967 Feb 15.
