Kosmos 880 (Russian: Космос 880 meaning Cosmos 880) was a satellite which was used as a target for tests of anti-satellite weapons. It was launched by the Soviet Union in 1976 as part of the Dnepropetrovsk Sputnik programme,^[1] and used as a target for Kosmos 886, as part of the Istrebitel Sputnik programme.^[2]

It was launched aboard a Kosmos-3M carrier rocket,^[3] from Site 132/2 at the Plesetsk Cosmodrome. The launch occurred at 20:00 UTC on 9 December 1976.^[4]

Kosmos 880 was placed into a low Earth orbit with a perigee of 558 kilometres (347 mi), an apogee of 614 kilometres (382 mi), 65.8 degrees of inclination, and an orbital period of 96.3 minutes.^[1] It was successfully intercepted and destroyed by Kosmos 886 on 27 December.^[2] The last catalogued piece of debris decayed from orbit on 9 December 2001.^[5]

Kosmos 880 was the fourth of ten Lira satellites to be launched,^[1] of which all but the first were successful. Lira was derived from the earlier DS-P1-M satellite, which it replaced.
