About JILIN-01 GAOFEN 2B
JILIN-01 GAOFEN 2B is a satellite from China, launched on Dec 7, 2019 from Taiyaun Space Center, China.
It circles Earth every 95 minutes (15.2 times a day), between 491 and 509 km up, on an orbit tilted 97.5° 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 21 days its lowest point went from 492 km to 491 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
From Space-Track element sets, one point a day.
