About GLOBAL-13

GLOBAL-13 is a satellite from the United States, launched on Dec 2, 2021 from Air Force Eastern Test Range.

It circles Earth every 93 minutes (15.5 times a day), between 412 and 415 km up, on an orbit tilted 53.2° 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 19 days its lowest point went from 413 km to 412 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
