    Aureole 2 rocket, int. design. 1973-107B cat.no 7004
    The possibly oldest tumbling Kosmos rocket is the one that launched
    Aureole 2 more than 36 years ago. Since it was near is perigee it was
    moving fast and it was bright in its maxima. Unfortunately a
    near-perigee transit does not last long . Therefore I was not able to
    attend more than six cycles.
