About FOX-1

FOX-1 is a satellite from the United States, launched on Oct 8, 2015 from Air Force Western Test Range.

It circles Earth every 97 minutes (14.9 times a day), between 493 and 693 km up, on an orbit tilted 64.8° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 65° north and south.

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