COSMOS 2575 — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 58929)
Track COSMOS 2575 (NORAD catalog number 58929) 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 2024, launched on the 26th orbital launch of that year (COSPAR designation 2024-026A). As of this element set it had completed roughly 14,854 revolutions of Earth.
Moving at about 7.70 km/s, COSMOS 2575 flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 349 × 352 km, completing one revolution every 91.4 minutes — about 15.8 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0003). Inclined 96.6° — nearly pole-to-pole — its ground track sweeps essentially every latitude. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 130.4°. Earth's equatorial bulge precesses that plane eastward about 0.95° per day, matching the Sun's apparent motion — which is what holds its lighting constant.

About the Other Active Satellites group
COSMOS 2575 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 COSMOS 2575 from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, COSMOS 2575 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.
