CURIUM ONE — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 60242)

Track CURIUM ONE (NORAD catalog number 60242) 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 H of 2024's 128th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2024-128H). It went up together with 4 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 11,884 revolutions of Earth.

Moving at about 7.62 km/s, CURIUM ONE flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 513 × 552 km, completing one revolution every 95.1 minutes — about 15.1 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0028). Inclined 62.0° to the equator, it overflies every latitude up to about 62° north and south. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 275.6°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 3.55° per day.

About the Other Active Satellites group

CURIUM ONE 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 CURIUM ONE from the ground?

Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, CURIUM ONE 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.
