About RESURS DK-1

RESURS DK-1 is a satellite from Russia (or the former Soviet Union), launched on Jun 15, 2006 from Tyuratam Missile and Space Complex.

It circles Earth every 95 minutes (15.1 times a day), between 524 and 526 km up, on an orbit tilted 69.9° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 70° north and south.

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