About SNUSAT-2

SNUSAT-2 is a satellite from South Korea, launched on Dec 3, 2018 from Air Force Western Test Range.

It circles Earth every 95 minutes (15.2 times a day), between 489 and 502 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.

Orbit height over the past year

Over the last 366 days its lowest point went from 507 km to 489 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
