Date: 1952-04-14

Vehicle: Midway-I

Payload: Yorktown 3

Destination: Low earth orbit

Result: Stage 3 Failure

One XASR-1 engine failed in the 3rd stage causing a precession of the craft. The other engines managed to burn for an extended period of time, but the precession caused our inclination to go to 95.36 and we failed the mission.
