About CBERS 4A

CBERS 4A is a satellite from CHBZ, launched on Dec 20, 2019 from Taiyaun Space Center, China.

It circles Earth every 97 minutes (14.8 times a day), between 624 and 626 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.0° 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 624 km to 624 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
