About RAZAKSAT

RAZAKSAT is a satellite from MALA, launched on Jul 14, 2009 from Kwajalein.

It circles Earth every 98 minutes (14.7 times a day), between 648 and 671 km up, on an orbit tilted 9.0° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 9° 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 648 km to 649 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
