The Bion satellite was launched in Oct 1970. It was a Zenit-2M modified for life sciences research, and placed in an orbit with somewhat higher apogee than the imaging flights. Zenit-2M/Bion was announced as Kosmos-368. This flight studied radiation effects on living organisms during a six day mission. It was the precursor to a series of life sciences missions.
