Its orbit in 3D
Goes round Earth once every 93 minutes, on an orbit tilted 45.0° from the equator, between 2,615,878,087 and 2,681,925,666 km up. Earth is drawn to scale.

About CTC-0
CTC-0 is a satellite from the United States, launched on Dec 21, 2024 from Air Force Western Test Range.
It circles Earth every 93 minutes (15.4 times a day), between 432 and 436 km up, on an orbit tilted 45.0° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 45° 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 15 days its lowest point went from 432 km to 432 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.
