## Why It Matters
Cosmos 513 is a documented entry in the historic sequence of Soviet spaceflights, identifiable by standard cataloging systems (COSPAR ID 1972-060A and SCN 06135). As an instance of the Zenit-4M class, it represents one element of that vehicle family’s flight history and contributes to technical, orbital, and archival records used by researchers, historians, and tracking organizations. The launch details — date, precise recorded time, launch vehicle (Voskhod), and specific Baikonur pad (Site 31) — make Cosmos 513 a verifiable data point for chronology and orbital cataloguing of 1972 Soviet launches. Its presence in external reference systems (Wolfram Language entity code) and multilingual Wikipedia entries indicates that it is a tracked and referenced object within public and computational knowledge bases, useful for cross-referencing satellite catalogs, launch logs, and program-level studies.
