Luna 22, launched May 29, 1974, was a lunar orbiter from the Soviet Space program. It was the second of the "advanced" lunar orbiters, the first being Luna 19. Luna 22 entered lunar orbit on June 2 and performed without any problems. It returned photos for fifteen months, well past its intended mission conclusion, April 1975.
Luna 22 depleted its maneuvering propellant on September 2, and the mission formally ended in November 1975.
I could not find any videos of Luna 22.
