About MAST
MAST is a satellite from the United States, launched on Apr 17, 2007 from Tyuratam Missile and Space Complex.
It circles Earth every 98 minutes (14.6 times a day), between 627 and 741 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.5° 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 626 km to 627 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.
