PROVES-ELECTRA — Live Satellite Tracking (NORAD 69795)
Track PROVES-ELECTRA (NORAD catalog number 69795) 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 YK of 1998's 67th orbital launch (COSPAR designation 1998-067YK). It went up together with 13 other satellites from that launch still in the active catalog.
Moving at about 7.68 km/s, PROVES-ELECTRA flies in low Earth orbit at an altitude of roughly 400 × 410 km, completing one revolution every 92.5 minutes — about 15.6 trips around Earth per day. The orbit is essentially circular (eccentricity 0.0008). Inclined 51.6° to the equator, it overflies every latitude up to about 52° north and south. Its orbital plane crosses the equator northbound at right ascension 252.0°. Earth's equatorial bulge drifts that plane westward about 5.00° per day.

About the Other Active Satellites group
PROVES-ELECTRA 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 PROVES-ELECTRA from the ground?
Sometimes. Like most low-Earth-orbit spacecraft, PROVES-ELECTRA 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.
