On this video I wanna show how a resonant orbit work. The main application of this type of orbit is setup a communication network with multiple satellites. The satellites will be delivery in orbit in one launch, and the resonant orbit will do the service of made a almost perfect synchronization between the satellites.

The launch will be made by the Titan 3 rocket, what the first stage is powered by 3 LR87 Booster Engine, and the 2nd stage is powered by one LR91 Series Engine, all this engines using KEROLOX as propellent. The 3nd stage is powered by a Juno IV 6K Engine using hydrazine as propellent, carryng 3 satellites Com Sat Network II, each one with own propulsion with hypergolic fuels, what will be used to circularize the orbit.

This satellites will provide constant communication with any vessel on his range, making a consistable network. The expected operational time for this network is 10 years.
