YAOGAN-34 02 — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 52084)
Track YAOGAN-34 02 (NORAD catalog number 52084) 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 2022, launched on the 27th orbital launch of that year (COSPAR designation 2022-027A). As of this element set it had completed roughly 21,996 revolutions of Earth.
Moving at about 7.35 km/s, YAOGAN-34 02 flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 1,052 × 1,140 km, completing one revolution every 107.0 minutes — about 13.5 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0059). Inclined 63.4° to the equator, it overflies every latitude up to about 63° north and south. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 350.1°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 2.57° per day.

Can you see YAOGAN-34 02 from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, YAOGAN-34 02 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.
