About AFR-1
AFR-1 is a satellite from India, launched on Jun 12, 2023 from Air Force Western Test Range.
It circles Earth every 94 minutes (15.3 times a day), between 471 and 483 km up, on an orbit tilted 97.6° 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 17 days its lowest point went from 471 km to 471 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.
