CAPELLA-14 (ACADIA-4) — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 59444)
Track CAPELLA-14 (ACADIA-4) (NORAD catalog number 59444) 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 2024's 66th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2024-066C). It went up together with 10 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 12,480 revolutions of Earth.
Moving at about 7.59 km/s, CAPELLA-14 (ACADIA-4) flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 555 × 557 km, completing one revolution every 95.6 minutes — about 15.1 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0001). Inclined 45.6° to the equator, it overflies every latitude up to about 46° north and south. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 187.5°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 5.22° per day.

Can you see CAPELLA-14 (ACADIA-4) from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, CAPELLA-14 (ACADIA-4) 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.
