About KITSAT 3
KITSAT 3 is a satellite from South Korea, launched on May 26, 1999 from Sirharikota.
It circles Earth every 99 minutes (14.6 times a day), between 698 and 715 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.6° 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 366 days its lowest point went from 699 km to 698 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.
