About FENGYUN 3E
FENGYUN 3E is a satellite from China, launched on Jul 4, 2021 from Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, China.
It circles Earth every 101 minutes (14.2 times a day), between 824 and 828 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.8° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 81° 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 366 days its lowest point went from 824 km to 824 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.
