COSMOS 2584 [GLONASS-K2] — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 63130)

Track COSMOS 2584 [GLONASS-K2] (NORAD catalog number 63130) 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 2025, launched on the 42nd orbital launch of that year (COSPAR designation 2025-042A). As of this element set it had completed roughly 1,176 revolutions of Earth.

Moving at about 3.96 km/s, COSMOS 2584 [GLONASS-K2] operates in medium Earth orbit at roughly 19,121–19,153 km altitude, taking about 11.3 hours per revolution (2.13 orbits a day). The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0006). Inclined 65.1° to the equator, it overflies every latitude up to about 65° north and south. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 70.1°.

About the Navigation group

COSMOS 2584 [GLONASS-K2] is part of Russia's GLONASS fleet — one of 173 global-navigation satellites in the WatchSat catalog across GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou. GNSS spacecraft broadcast precise time signals from orbits around 20,000 km up; a phone fixes its position by comparing several of them at once. See the whole navigation group live in 3D.

Can you see COSMOS 2584 [GLONASS-K2] from the ground?

Not with the naked eye. At its altitude COSMOS 2584 [GLONASS-K2] is far beyond unaided visibility — following satellites this high takes a telescope and good timing. You can still track it precisely in the live 3D view above, or check pass predictions for your location.
