It is supposed to be a relay Satellite, able to relay information from the atmospheric probe which is in a collision course (controlled one) to Earth while in Orbit around the planet GRN in mission 18.It still does its purpose when you re-enter an atmospheric probe and point the Survey Satellite down to the planet but the "data" received has no use to the game in sandbox.
