List of Kosmos satellites (1251–1500)

Main article: List of Kosmos satellites

The designation Kosmos (Russian: Космос meaning Cosmos) is a generic name given to a large number of Soviet, and subsequently Russian, satellites, the first of which was launched in 1962. Satellites given Kosmos designations include military spacecraft, failed probes to the Moon and the planets, prototypes for crewed spacecraft, and scientific spacecraft. This is a list of satellites with Kosmos designations between 1251 and 1500.

First USSR satellite equipped with SLSR (Side-looking Satellite Radar)-Resolution 1.5-2.0 km, Swath Width 450–500 km. Used for ocean surface observations. In December 1983 data from Kosmos 1500 was used to map escape routes for a lot of Soviet ships trapped in heavy Arctic ice in the De Long Straits near Wrangel Island. Kosmos 1500 provided images of Typhoon Ida near the coast of Japan showing the structure of the waves. Pictures also showed an apparent oil slick greater than 300 km extended from Tokyo Bay.[24]
