About FENGYUN 1A
FENGYUN 1A is a satellite from China, launched on Sep 6, 1988 from Taiyaun Space Center, China.
It circles Earth every 103 minutes (14.0 times a day), between 872 and 891 km up, on an orbit tilted 99.0° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 81° north and south.
The map shows where it is right now; the pass list tells you when it next comes over your location.
Orbit height over the past year
Over the last 365 days its lowest point went from 872 km to 872 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
From Space-Track element sets, one point a day.
