About PROVES-ELECTRA

PROVES-ELECTRA is a satellite from the United States, launched on Nov 20, 1998 from Tyuratam Missile and Space Complex.

It circles Earth every 92 minutes (15.7 times a day), between 362 and 375 km up, on an orbit tilted 51.6° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 52° 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 19 days its lowest point went from 373 km to 362 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
