About CHUANG XIN 26 (CX-26)

CHUANG XIN 26 (CX-26) is a satellite from China, launched on Jul 10, 2026 from Wenchang Satellite Launch Center.

It circles Earth every 101 minutes (14.3 times a day), between 804 and 812 km up, on an orbit tilted 50.0° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 50° 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 9 days its lowest point went from 804 km to 804 km. Sudden rises are engine burns that lift the orbit; slow declines are drag from the thin upper atmosphere.
