About TYVAK-0130
TYVAK-0130 is a satellite from the United States, launched on May 15, 2021 from Air Force Eastern Test Range.
It circles Earth every 94 minutes (15.3 times a day), between 472 and 484 km up, on an orbit tilted 53.0° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 53° 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 20 days its lowest point went from 472 km to 473 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.
