Description

Again a design that I have used before, but performed the swap from Solar Panels to PB-NUK Generators. These are the hefty communication satellites that are placed in a highly eccentric polar orbit around Sarnus. They provide coverage for the whole system satellite network. They are inserted using the PCSP spacecraft, "BigPolarOne".
