ARGON 10 (KH-5 Mission 9042A, CORONA flight 50) was launched on 1962 Sep 1 by Thor Agena B from Vandenberg. The SRV was ejected after a 4 day mission but it sank in the Pacific when the parachute failed. The payload carried the first of several to study energetic electrons in the STARFISH radiation belt.
Agena 1132 had an orbit mass of 1134 kg.
