Kosmos 1484 (Russian: Космос 1484 meaning Cosmos 1484), also known as Resurs-OE No.3-2 was a Soviet prototype Earth imaging satellite, launched in 1983 as part of the Resurs programme. It was a prototype of the Meteor-derived Resurs-O1 spacecraft,[1] which paved the way for the first Resurs-O1 to fly in October 1985.
Kosmos 1484 was launched at 05:30:37 UTC on July 24, 1983. A Vostok-2M carrier rocket was used to place the satellite into low Earth orbit. The launch was conducted from Site 31/6 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome.[2] Following the successful launch, the satellite was assigned its Kosmos designation, and was also given the International Designator 1983-075A, and the Satellite Catalog Number 14207.
Following the completion of its mission, Kosmos 1484 remained in orbit for several years as [[space debris]|a derelict satelltie]]. It suffered a fragmentation event - possibly due to a battery explosion - on October 18, 1993; however, the spacecraft remained relatively intact. Its orbit decayed and the main component of it reentered Earth's atmosphere on January 28, 2013.[2] The American Meteor Society reported that its re-entry fireball was witnessed over the eastern United States, with sightings from New York state to Georgia.[3]
Most of the rest of Kosmos 1484 has also decayed but as of 2023, at least one fragment - 1983-075BG - remains.[4]
