About KHALIFASAT

KHALIFASAT is a satellite from UAE, launched on Oct 29, 2018 from Tanegashima Space Center.

It circles Earth every 96 minutes (15.0 times a day), between 558 and 566 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.1° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 82° 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 558 km to 558 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
