SEEDS II (CO-66) — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 32791)
Track SEEDS II (CO-66) (NORAD catalog number 32791) live on the WatchSat interactive 3D globe above. Its position is propagated in real time from the latest CelesTrak two-line element set using the SGP4/SDP4 orbital model — the same math professional trackers run. It is object J of 2008's 21st orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2008-021J). It went up together with 3 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog.
Moving at about 7.64 km/s, SEEDS II (CO-66) flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 464 × 470 km, completing one revolution every 93.8 minutes — about 15.4 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0004). Its 97.8° retrograde, near-polar inclination is characteristic of a Sun-synchronous orbit — the type Earth-imaging and weather satellites use to revisit each spot at the same local solar time. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 251.9°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane eastward about 1.05° per day.

About the Other Active Satellites group
SEEDS II (CO-66) is one of 4,471 active satellites in WatchSat's general catalog — the broad population of Earth-observation, communications, science, amateur-radio and technology spacecraft outside the giant broadband constellations. Browse all other active satellites live in 3D.
Can you see SEEDS II (CO-66) from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, SEEDS II (CO-66) is visible only around dawn and dusk, when your sky is dark but the satellite is still sunlit — and whether you can spot it depends on its size and reflectivity. See pass predictions for your location for when it is above your horizon and sunlit.
