Kosmos 132 (Russian: Космос 132 meaning Cosmos 132) or Zenit-2 No.46 was a Soviet optical film-return reconnaissance satellite launched in 1966. A Zenit-2 spacecraft, Kosmos 132 was the forty-third of eighty-one such satellites to be launched[5][6] and had a mass of 4,730.0 kilograms (10,427.9 lb).[1]
Kosmos 132 was launched by a Vostok-2 rocket, serial number N15001-08,[7] flying from Site 31/6 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. The launch took place at 08:09 UTC on 19 November 1966,[2] and following its successful arrival in orbit the spacecraft received its Kosmos designation; along with the International Designator 1966-106A and the Satellite Catalog Number 2599.[1]
Kosmos 132 was operated in a low Earth orbit; at an epoch of 21 November 1966 it had a perigee of 201 kilometres (125 mi), an apogee of 266 kilometres (165 mi) inclination of 64.9 degrees and an orbital period of 89.17 minutes.[4] After spending eight days in orbit, Kosmos 132 was deorbited with its return capsule descending under parachute and landing at 07:12 UTC on 27 November 1966.[3]
