COSMOS 2590 — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 64527)
Track COSMOS 2590 (NORAD catalog number 64527) 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 D of 2025's 131st orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2025-131D). It went up together with 1 other satellite from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 442 revolutions of Earth.
Its speed swings from 2.10 km/s at apogee to 4.50 km/s at perigee. COSMOS 2590 follows a highly elliptical orbit, completing a revolution every 23.9 hours. The orbit is strongly elliptical (eccentricity 0.3641): each revolution swings from 20,452 km at perigee out to 51,168 km at apogee. Its near-equatorial 0.8° inclination keeps it above the tropics at all times. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 82.4°.

About the Other Active Satellites group
COSMOS 2590 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 2590 from the ground?
Not with the naked eye. At its altitude COSMOS 2590 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.
