Samos 2

 1961-001B

---

SAMOS 2 (Agena 2102), in January 1961, was one of the few successful missions, but its photos were disappointing. Orbit mass of SAMOS and Agena totalled 1915 kg. SAMOS 2 was part of the Program 101 series. The third Program 101 satellite, Agena 2103, was used mainly for engine static firings.

The satellite was another combined E-1/F-1 payload. The E-1 payload was mounted underneath F-1 and had a small field of view while F-1 obstructed it. F-1 was ejected to improve the field of view: this may have caused loss of contact with the vehicle.

OSO 2

  1965-007A

---

The S-017 payload, OSO B, was damaged in an accident on 1964 Apr 14 when the Altair X-248A6 third stage ignited during a ground test and the vehicle launched itself to the building ceiling. Unlike the later X-258, the X-248 igniter was sensitive to electrostatic potentials generated by normal activity in the clean room. There were three fatalities.

Parts from OSO B were combined with an engineering prototype to create OSO B2, which was launched at 1636 on 1965 Feb 3 by a Delta C from Cape Canaveral. 12 minutes later, Orbiting Solar Observatory 2 was in a 96.40 min, 550 x 634 km x 32.9 deg orbit. It transmitted regularly until 1965 Nov and was used occasionally until mid 1966.

The second Ekran (Ekran No. 12L) was launched on 1977 Sep 20 by Proton-K from Baykonur. The spacecraft was stationed at 99E but on 1978 Jun 23 its nickel-hydrogen battery exploded, distributing numerous fragments in the geostationary ring. The spacecraft was able to operate through 1980 via its solar panels and backup battery.
