About OPS 6582 (TRANSIT 5B-5)
OPS 6582 (TRANSIT 5B-5) is a satellite from the United States, launched on Dec 13, 1964 from Air Force Western Test Range.
It circles Earth every 106 minutes (13.6 times a day), between 1,017 and 1,076 km up, on an orbit tilted 90.1° to the equator, so its path covers latitudes up to 90° 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 8 days its lowest point went from 1,017 km to 1,017 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.
