About XINGYUN-2 01
XINGYUN-2 01 is a satellite from China, launched on May 12, 2020 from Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, China.
It circles Earth every 95 minutes (15.1 times a day), between 522 and 537 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 523 km to 522 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.
