About GONETS M 17
GONETS M 17 is a satellite from Russia (or the former Soviet Union), launched on Sep 28, 2020 from Plesetsk Missile and Space Complex.
It circles Earth every 116 minutes (12.4 times a day), between 1,476 and 1,513 km up, on an orbit tilted 82.5° 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 19 days its lowest point went from 1,476 km to 1,476 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.
