2024-199R — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 61750)

Track 2024-199R (NORAD catalog number 61750) 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 R of 2024's 199th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2024-199R). It went up together with 46 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 15,033 revolutions of Earth.

Moving at about 7.68 km/s, 2024-199R flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 388 × 394 km, completing one revolution every 92.2 minutes — about 15.6 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0005). Inclined 97.3° — nearly pole-to-pole — its ground track sweeps essentially every latitude. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 127.9°. Earth's equatorial bulge precesses that plane eastward about 1.03° per day, matching the Sun's apparent motion — which is what holds its lighting constant.

About the Other Active Satellites group

2024-199R 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 2024-199R from the ground?

Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, 2024-199R 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.
