## Why It Matters
Cosmos 736 is a concrete example of the Soviet-era deployment of the Strela-1M satellite class during the 1970s. Its launch demonstrates the operational use of the Kosmos-3M launch vehicle and the Plesetsk Cosmodrome launch complex (Site 132) for placing such satellites into space. As a cataloged object with both COSPAR and SCN identifiers, Cosmos 736 contributes to the recorded history and tracking of space objects from that period. The preserved identifiers and language coverage in multiple Wikipedia editions enable researchers and archivists to cross-reference technical logs, launch manifests, and catalog databases. For studies of Soviet launch frequency, satellite class deployment, or the operational record of the Kosmos-3M—each of which relies on accurate launch and identification data—Cosmos 736 is a discrete, verifiable data point. Its recorded launch time and site also help contextualize launch cadence and launch-site usage for historical analysis.
