About LANDSAT 7

LANDSAT 7 is a satellite from the United States, launched on Apr 15, 1999 from Air Force Western Test Range.

It circles Earth every 98 minutes (14.6 times a day), between 679 and 681 km up, on an orbit tilted 97.9° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 82° north and south.

The map shows where it is right now; the pass list tells you when it next comes over your location.
