The results of the analysis conducted on the telemetry data from the prelaunch, launch, and flight activation phases of LANDSAT-2 spacecraft are presented according to subsystems and interrelationships that exist between subsystems. Subsystem characteristics are included along with the flight evaluation results. Flight data are compared to baseline data established at the 20 C plateau during thermal vacuum testing of the spacecraft. Evaluation guidelines are derived from the specifications developed from the LANDSAT program objectives: (1) acquisition of multispectral images of the surface of the earth; and (2) use of the LANDSAT-2 receiving, frequency translating, and transmitting equipment as a relay system to gather data from fixed earth-based sensor platforms which are operated by individual investigators. Data are presented on the first 50 orbits of the spacecraft. (Author)
