FASTSAT-HSV01 (USA 220) — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 37225)

Track FASTSAT-HSV01 (USA 220) (NORAD catalog number 37225) 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 D of 2010's 62nd orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2010-062D). It went up together with 1 other satellite from that launch still in the active catalog.

Moving at about 7.56 km/s, FASTSAT-HSV01 (USA 220) flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 617 × 642 km, completing one revolution every 97.2 minutes — about 14.8 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0018). Inclined 72.0° to the equator, it overflies every latitude up to about 72° north and south. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 337.2°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 2.23° per day.

Can you see FASTSAT-HSV01 (USA 220) from the ground?

Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, FASTSAT-HSV01 (USA 220) 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.
