STPSAT-7 — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 68630)
Track STPSAT-7 (NORAD catalog number 68630) 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 2026's 74th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2026-074D). It went up together with 8 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 2,320 revolutions of Earth.
Moving at about 7.65 km/s, STPSAT-7 flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 472 × 522 km, completing one revolution every 94.4 minutes — about 15.3 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0036). Inclined 60.0° to the equator, it overflies every latitude up to about 60° north and south. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 225.3°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 3.84° per day.

Can you see STPSAT-7 from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, STPSAT-7 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.
