The satellite is designed to identify missile launches using optical telescopes and infrared sensors.[2] It was estimated in the west that it stopped functioning in March 1998,[1] and reentered destructively on December 31, 2012.[14] (the early morning of January 1, 2013 in some time zones) Kosmos 2261 was launched from Site 16/2 at Plesetsk Cosmodrome in Russia.[15] A Molniya-M carrier rocket with a 2BL upper stage was used to perform the launch, which took place at 14:53 UTC on 10 August 1993.[3] The launch successfully placed the satellite into a molniya orbit. It subsequently received its Kosmos designation, and the international designator 1993-051A.[3] The United States Space Command assigned it the Satellite Catalog Number 22741.[3] Its predicted re-entry time was December 31, 2012 at 11:29 UTC ± 2 hours.[2] See also{{Portal|Spaceflight}}
