QIANFAN-184 — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 69402)
Track QIANFAN-184 (NORAD catalog number 69402) 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 B of 2026's 125th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 2026-125B). It went up together with 17 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog. As of this element set it had completed roughly 1,302 revolutions of Earth.
Moving at about 7.32 km/s, QIANFAN-184 flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 1,074 × 1,077 km, completing one revolution every 106.6 minutes — about 13.5 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0002). Inclined 89.0° — nearly pole-to-pole — its ground track sweeps essentially every latitude. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 271.7°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 0.10° per day.

Can you see QIANFAN-184 from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, QIANFAN-184 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.
