About SARAL

SARAL is a satellite from India, launched on Feb 25, 2013 from Sirharikota.

It circles Earth every 100 minutes (14.3 times a day), between 781 and 783 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.6° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 81° 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 22 days its lowest point went from 781 km to 781 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
