Launch 3-8: Kerbin-Class Skipper-Terrier KomSAT Mk IV

Now that we have researched dishes with extended ranges, it's time to extend our communications network throughout the inner planets. To this end, we are launching a communication relay satellite to a highly-eccentric polar orbit, which will relay to another satellite orbiting in a KSO orbit over KSC.

Year 3, Day 88.
Mission Objectives:

1. Deploy satellite to a highly-eccentric, polar orbit.

Mission Summary:

1. Deploy satellite to a highly-eccentric, polar orbit: Failed to reach orbit.

Ironically for a communications satellite, we failed to include any omni antennas activated at launch, and our payload failed to deploy.
