YAOGAN-35 03C — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 53320)
Track YAOGAN-35 03C (NORAD catalog number 53320) 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 E of 2022's 88th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2022-088E). It went up together with 1 other satellite from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 22,967 revolutions of Earth.
Moving at about 7.66 km/s, YAOGAN-35 03C flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 419 × 422 km, completing one revolution every 92.8 minutes — about 15.5 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0002). Its 35.0° inclination keeps its ground track over the tropics and lower mid-latitudes. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 335.3°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 6.55° per day.

Can you see YAOGAN-35 03C from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, YAOGAN-35 03C 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.
