Global Low Orbiting Message Relay Satellite (GLOMR)

GLOMR was a DARPA mission designed to demonstrate the ability to read out,
store, and forward data from remote ground-based sensors. The satellite
was first scheduled for deployment from STS-51B, but a battery problem
forced a return to Earth for repair. Reflown and deployed from STS-61A,
the vehicle finally re-entered after 14 months. The total price was less
than 1 million dollars.
