Kosmos 147 (Russian: Космос 147 meaning Cosmos 147) or Zenit-2 No.44 was a Soviet optical film-return reconnaissance satellite launched in 1967. A Zenit-2 spacecraft, Kosmos 147 was the forty-seventh of eighty-one such satellites to be launched.[5][6]

Kosmos 147 was launched by a Vostok-2 rocket, serial number N15001-06,[7] flying from Site 41/1 at the Plesetsk Cosmodrome. The launch took place at 12:10:23 UTC on 13 March 1967,[2] and following its successful arrival in orbit the spacecraft received its Kosmos designation; along with the International Designator 1967-022A and the Satellite Catalog Number 2710.[1]

Kosmos 147 was operated in a low Earth orbit; at an epoch of 15 March 1967 it had a perigee of 199 kilometres (124 mi), an apogee of 284 kilometres (176 mi) inclination of 64.5 degrees and an orbital period of 89.33 minutes.[4] After eight days in orbit, Kosmos 147 was deorbited, with its return capsule descending under parachute and landing at 06:29 UTC on 21 March 1967. An unspecified problem with the satellite resulted in the mission being considered a partial failure.[3]
