## Why It Matters
Kosmos 380 is a documented example of Soviet satellite activity from 1970. Its recorded identifiers (COSPAR ID 1970-100A and satellite catalog number 04762) and multiple external database entries (Freebase and Wolfram Language) make it a traceable object in orbital records and historical launch datasets. The satellite links specific industrial and launch infrastructure: it was manufactured by the Pivdenne Design Office, launched from Plesetsk Cosmodrome Site 133, and placed into orbit by a Kosmos-2I carrier rocket. These concrete associations are useful for researchers tracing hardware lineages, launch-vehicle usage, and manufacturing provenance in Soviet-era space activity. As an instance of the DSZ–P1–Ju class, Kosmos 380 contributes to understanding that class’s deployment timeline and cataloging. The precise launch timestamp (10:59:56 on 1970-11-24) and its multilingual Wikipedia presence support both technical record-keeping and public historical reference.
