About TIANZHOU 10

TIANZHOU 10 is a satellite from China, launched on May 11, 2026 from Wenchang Satellite Launch Center.

It circles Earth every 92 minutes (15.6 times a day), between 383 and 386 km up, on an orbit tilted 41.5° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 41° 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 386 km to 383 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
