An antenna allows in theory the communication with Kerbin. As of 0.21.1[outdated] all antennae available aren't functioning and can only be deployed but not retracted. Mods like the RemoteTech add functionality to them.

Trivia
- Antennas can be retracted through a bug when the craft is accessed from the Tracking Station, however, doing so will make the antenna blocked in the retracted state.
