CYGFM03 — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 41891)
Track CYGFM03 (NORAD catalog number 41891) 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 H of 2016's 78th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2016-078H). It went up together with 6 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 54,175 revolutions of Earth.
Moving at about 7.69 km/s, CYGFM03 flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 379 × 385 km, completing one revolution every 92.0 minutes — about 15.6 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0004). Its 34.9° inclination keeps its ground track over the tropics and lower mid-latitudes. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 46.1°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 6.69° per day.

About the Other Active Satellites group
CYGFM03 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 CYGFM03 from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, CYGFM03 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.
