MOC-127337 Luna 19/22 (Soviet lunar orbiter) building blocks

• Luna 22 was the second of two "advanced" lunar orbiters, the first being Luna 19. Intended for extensive scientific investigations from orbit en route to the Moon, Luna 20 was required to make a mid-course correction on May 30 and entered lunar orbit on June 2, 1974. When the spacecraft first entered lunar orbit, it had an apogee of 222 km (138 mi), a perigee of 219 km (136 mi), and an inclination of 19°35'. These orbital parameters changed over the course of the mission. Luna 22 operated without problems during various orbital changes and continued to provide photographs for more than 15 months after the end of its primary mission, which ended on April 2, 1975. The spacecraft ran out of maneuvering propellant on September 2, 1975, and the mission officially ended in early November 1975.

• Designed and authorized by NightHawk11991, the 1/20 scale Luna 22 model has an imaging camera and features a compact and delicate overall design. The appropriate number of particles makes it user-friendly for most people. The excellent smooth model in uniform color offers high visual appeal and collectible value.
