About GALILEO-PFM
GALILEO-PFM is a satellite from the European Space Agency, launched on Oct 21, 2011 from French Guiana.
It circles Earth every 845 minutes (1.7 times a day), between 23,218 and 23,226 km up, on an orbit tilted 56.9° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 57° north and south.
The map shows where it is right now; the pass list tells you when it next comes over your location.
