Interkosmos 22

 1981-075A

---

The Interkosmos-22 satellite was named Interkosmos-Bolgaria-1300 ( Interkosmos-Bolgariya-1300, Interkosmos-Bulgaria-1300) to celebrate the 1300th anniversary of Bulgarian statehood.

Based on the Meteor 2 bus, IKB-1300 was launched by a Vostok rocket into a 800 x 895 km orbit inclined 81.2 deg. It carried laser reflectors for geodetic work and a set of particles and fields experiments to study the magnetosphere and ionosphere.
