About HAIYANG 1C

HAIYANG 1C is a satellite from China, launched on Sep 7, 2018 from Taiyaun Space Center, China.

It circles Earth every 100 minutes (14.3 times a day), between 769 and 786 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.5° 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 21 days its lowest point went from 769 km to 769 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
