About DB-BECON-2-VU
DB-BECON-2-VU is a satellite from TBD, launched on Mar 30, 2026 from Air Force Western Test Range.
It circles Earth every 95 minutes (15.2 times a day), between 503 and 512 km up, on an orbit tilted 97.5° 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 10 days its lowest point went from 503 km to 503 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.
