About RANGE A
RANGE A is a satellite from the United States, launched on Dec 3, 2018 from Air Force Western Test Range.
It circles Earth every 95 minutes (15.1 times a day), between 517 and 529 km up, on an orbit tilted 97.4° 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.
