About METEOR M2-2

METEOR M2-2 is a satellite from Russia (or the former Soviet Union), launched on Jul 5, 2019 from Vostochny Cosmodrome.

It circles Earth every 101 minutes (14.2 times a day), between 809 and 812 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.9° 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 366 days its lowest point went from 810 km to 809 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
