About TUBSAT

TUBSAT is a satellite from Germany, launched on May 26, 1999 from Sirharikota.

It circles Earth every 99 minutes (14.5 times a day), between 708 and 727 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.7° 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 23 days its lowest point went from 708 km to 708 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
