Kosar is a small technology-demonstration or Earth-observation satellite flown as part of Russia's large November 4, 2024 Vostochny rideshare mission (COSPAR 2024-199), which primarily carried the Ionosfera-M scientific payloads alongside roughly two dozen university and institutional CubeSats. Kosar's specific builder and detailed mission objectives could not be confirmed with confidence during research; the name does not clearly match any of the larger, better-documented payloads on this launch, so this entry should be treated as tentative pending direct confirmation.
