Zond 3 was a 1965 space probe which performed a flyby of the Moon{{'s}} far side,[2] taking a number of quality photographs for its time. It was a member of the Soviet Zond program while also being part of the Mars 3MV project. It was unrelated to Zond spacecraft designed for manned circumlunar missions (Soyuz 7K-L1). It is believed that Zond 3 was initially designed as a companion spacecraft to Zond 2 to be launched to Mars during the 1964 launch window. The opportunity to launch was missed, and the spacecraft was launched on a Mars-crossing trajectory as a spacecraft test, even though Mars was no longer attainable.

Spacecraft design

The spacecraft was of the 3MV-4 type, similar to Zond 2.[3] In addition to a 106.4 mm focal length {{f/|8}} imaging system for visible light photography and ultraviolet spectrometry at 285-355 nanometres, it carried ultraviolet (190-275 nanometre) and infrared (3-4 micrometre) spectrophotometers, radiation sensors (gas-discharge and scintillation counters), charged particle detector, magnetometer, and micrometeoroid detector.[3][4] It also had an experimental ion engine.

Operational history

Zond 3 was launched from Baikonur Cosmodrome on July 18, 1965, at 14:38 UTC, and was deployed from a Tyazhely Sputnik (65-056B) Earth-orbiting platform towards the Moon and interplanetary space. This was a repeat of a mission that failed in late 1963 intended to test communication at distances equivalent to the distances experienced by Mars and Earth.[5]

Zond 3's lunar flyby occurred on July 20 with a closest approach of {{convert|9219|km|mi|abbr=on}},[3] approximately {{time interval|18 July 1965 14:38|20 July 1965 02:00|show=h}} after launch. 25 visible light photographs and 3 ultraviolet spectra of very good quality were taken of the lunar surface, beginning at 01:24 UTC and {{convert|11570|km|mi|abbr=on}} prior to closest approach and ending at 02:32 UTC and {{convert|9960|km|mi|abbr=on}} past closest approach, covering a period of 68 minutes.[3][6] The photos covered {{convert|19|e6km2|e6sqmi|abbr=unit}} of the lunar surface.[7]

Zond 3 proceeded on a trajectory across Mars' orbit, but not at a time when planetary encounter would occur. These images were transmitted by radio frequency on July 29 at a distance of {{convert|2.25|e6km|e6mi|abbr=unit}}. To test telemetry, the camera film was rewound and retransmitted in mid-August, mid-September, and finally on October 23 at a distance of {{convert|31.5|e6km|e6mi|abbr=unit}}, thus proving the ability of the communications system.[3] The subsequent transmissions were also at progressively slower data rates but higher quality.[5] The mission was ended after radio contact ceased on March 3, 1966, when it was at a distance of {{convert|153.5|e6km|e6mi|abbr=unit}}.[3][4] It operated for 228 days, roughly equivalent to the time needed to survive a journey to Mars and exceeding that needed for Venus.[3]
