About NEONSAT-1

NEONSAT-1 is a satellite from South Korea, launched on Apr 23, 2024 from Rocket Lab Launch Complex.

It circles Earth every 93 minutes (15.4 times a day), between 438 and 447 km up, on an orbit tilted 97.3° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 83° 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 464 km to 438 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
