RS-D2
It was a 41.5 kg experimental spin stabilised satellite that used 16 W of power and was launched successfully on 1983-04-17 into an orbit of 371 x 861 km and an inclination of 46°. The satellite was in operation for 17 months and its main payload, a Smart sensor camera took over 2500 pictures. The camera had the capability to take pictures both in Visible and infrared bands.
