About QPS-SAR-15 SUKUNAMI-1
QPS-SAR-15 SUKUNAMI-1 is a satellite from Japan, launched on Dec 21, 2025 from Rocket Lab Launch Complex.
It circles Earth every 96 minutes (15.0 times a day), between 561 and 574 km up, on an orbit tilted 42.0° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 42° 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 11 days its lowest point went from 561 km to 561 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.
