The usage of INTERKOSMOS satellite for astrodynamics
Abstract
The anticipated physical parameters of the INTERCOSMOS satellite and the properties of laser corner cube reflectors are given. The possible physical parameters and the visibility conditions are estimated. A short discussion concerns some scientific usage of the satellite observations.
