GMS-T — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 47346)
Track GMS-T (NORAD catalog number 47346) 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 has been on orbit since 2021, launched on the 4th orbital launch of that year (COSPAR designation 2021-004A). As of this element set it had completed roughly 27,040 revolutions of Earth.
Moving at about 7.26 km/s, GMS-T flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 1,202 × 1,207 km, completing one revolution every 109.4 minutes — about 13.2 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0003). Inclined 90.1° — nearly pole-to-pole — its ground track sweeps essentially every latitude. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 242.8°.

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