About CARB

CARB is a satellite from France, launched on Jul 26, 2025 from French Guiana.

It circles Earth every 98 minutes (14.7 times a day), between 640 and 664 km up, on an orbit tilted 98.0° 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.
