About SHERPA-AC1
SHERPA-AC1 is a satellite from the United States, launched on May 25, 2022 from Air Force Eastern Test Range.
It circles Earth every 94 minutes (15.4 times a day), between 448 and 457 km up, on an orbit tilted 97.7° 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 447 km to 448 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.
