About KANOPUS-V-IK

KANOPUS-V-IK is a satellite from Russia (or the former Soviet Union), launched on Jul 14, 2017 from Tyuratam Missile and Space Complex.

It circles Earth every 95 minutes (15.2 times a day), between 497 and 499 km up, on an orbit tilted 97.3° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 83° 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 21 days its lowest point went from 497 km to 497 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
