	Zenit spy satellite - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zenit (Russian: Зени́т, Zenith) is the name of a series of military spy satellites launched by the Soviet Union between 1961 and 1994.
		The first Zenit launch attempt took place on the 11 November 1961, but there was a fault in the rocket’s third stage and the spacecraft was destroyed using its destruct charge.
		The satellites carried a parabolic antenna, around 1m in diameter, that is associated with this equipment.

		A spy satellite (officially referred to as a reconaissance satellite or recon sat) is an Earth observation satellite or communications satellite deployed for military or intelligence applications.
		Until the 1970s and even the 1980s, many reconnaissance satellites that took photographs would eject canisters of photographic film, which would descend to earth and be plucked from the air as they floated down on parachutes.
		A few up-to-date reconnaissance satellite images have been declassified on occasion, or leaked, as in the case of KH-11 photographs which were sent to Jane's Defence Weekly in 1985.

	Zenit-2
		It was the Soviet Union's first spy satellite, and its later versions remained in use into the 21st Century.
		The agreed technical specifications for the 2K satellite (given the code name Zenit-2) were for a photo apparatus with a focal length of not less than a meter, limited only by the size of the spacecraft itself.
		The first Zenits were fitted out with the SA-20 camera, with a focal length of 1 meter, the SA-10 camera, with a focal length of 0.2 m, the Baikal photo-television device, and the Kust-12M ELINT radio apparatus (developed by M E Zaslavskiy).

	Zenit
		In May the technical requirements document was issued for a satellite that could be oriented in orbit by OPM MIAM.
		These included development of a three stage version of R-7, development of satellite guidance and control systems of the precision required for photography from orbit, satellite control equipment, ELINT sensors, guidance systems, film cassette return systems, and tracking systems for recovery of the re-entry vehicle with the film cassette.
		01 November 1958 Vostok spacecraft and Zenit spy satellite authorised.

	Zenit-4
		Zenit-4 was the second Soviet photo-reconnaisance satellite, providing high-resolution imagery to complement the area coverage of the Zenit-2.
		The launch of a Zenit-4 spy satellite, that uses the same launch vehicle as planned for Voskhod, has aborted on the pad after the Block A strap-on failed to ignite.
		The commission decides to set the launch of the next Zenit-4 reconnaissance satellite for 14 September; that of the Voskhod with mannequins on 18-20 September; the definitive landing system trial at Fedosiya on 23 September; and if that is successful, launch of a manned Voskhod by the end of September.

		In September 1953, Korolev proposed the development of an artificial satellite to this committee arguing that the R-7-launched flight of Sputnik 1 would serve as a powerful public demonstration of the Soviet Union’s ICBM capability.
		The Soviet lunar program depended heavily on the high technical performance of Korolev’s rocket systems and the industrial infrastructure that he built up, as well as his political influence, drive, and determination.
