Reach space

Crew:

None

This rocket is a B-1 block 1 with the payload from an A-1. The lighter payload should enable the rocket to escape Kerbin's atmosphere.

Unfortunately, the rocket had been tested in simulation mode with SAS, which the available probe core lacks. Due to this, the rocket failed to escape the atmosphere.
