About TIUNGSAT 1

TIUNGSAT 1 is a satellite from MALA, launched on Sep 26, 2000 from Tyuratam Missile and Space Complex.

It circles Earth every 96 minutes (15.0 times a day), between 528 and 593 km up, on an orbit tilted 64.5° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 65° 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 529 km to 528 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
