Beskrivning : Meteor 1-5 was the fifth fully operational Russian meteorological satellite and the thirteenth meteorological satellite launched from the Plesetsk site. The satellite was placed in a near-circular, near-polar prograde orbit to provide near-global observations of the earth`s weather systems, cloud cover, ice and snow fields, and reflected and emitted radiation from the dayside and nightside of the earth-atmosphere system for operational use by the Soviet Hydrometeorological Service. This was the first satellite of the Meteor series to be placed in a high orbit -- about 240 km higher than most other Meteor launches.
