YAOGAN-35 04B — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 53524)

Track YAOGAN-35 04B (NORAD catalog number 53524) 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 C of 2022's 100th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2022-100C). It went up together with 2 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 12,465 revolutions of Earth.

Moving at about 7.64 km/s, YAOGAN-35 04B flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 455 × 459 km, completing one revolution every 93.6 minutes — about 15.4 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0003). 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 296.4°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 6.43° per day.

About the Other Active Satellites group

YAOGAN-35 04B is one of 4,802 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 YAOGAN-35 04B from the ground?

Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, YAOGAN-35 04B 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 the “When can I see it?” panel in the live view for when it is above your horizon and sunlit.
