Re-entered 18 Nov 1975

DS-P1-Yu No. 75L (NORAD 7623, COSPAR 1975-006A) was a SU satellite that re-entered Earth's atmosphere on 18 Nov 1975, launched on 28 Jan 1975 on the DS-P1-Yu No. 75 mission. It was operated by PVO as part of the DS-P1-Yu A programme. The spacecraft was built by YUZH on the DS-P1 bus, with a mass of 200 kg. Like most satellites in low orbits, it was gradually slowed by atmospheric drag until re-entry.
