The OV1 (Orbiting Vehicle 1) were small research satellite to be launched piggy back on Atlas ICBM test flights. They consisted in general of the OV1 satellite and the OV1-PM propulsion module (or upper stage) to reach orbit.
OV1-14 was lifted into orbit during the mission ‘Atlas F | OV1-13 & 14’, on board a Atlas F space rocket.
The launch took place on April 6, 1968, 9:59 a.m. from 576A2.
