About ACRIMSAT

ACRIMSAT is a satellite from the United States, launched on Dec 21, 1999 from Air Force Western Test Range.

It circles Earth every 98 minutes (14.7 times a day), between 655 and 693 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.4° 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.

Orbit height over the past year

Over the last 24 days its lowest point went from 655 km to 655 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
