About this tracker · help & data

A free satellite tracker, live in 3D

Explore satellites orbiting Earth on an interactive 3D globe, directly in your browser. Search the International Space Station (ISS), filter the Starlink constellation, or discover satellites by name or NORAD ID. No download is needed.

Start tracking a satellite

Tap a satellite on the globe or use the search box. Drag to rotate your view, then pinch or scroll to zoom. Earth view gives you an overview; satellite view follows your selected object. The random, previous and next controls let you keep exploring.

Search, filter and understand what is in orbit

Use Filters to combine orbit types, constellation and mission categories, and debris visibility. Explore low Earth orbit (LEO), medium Earth orbit (MEO), geostationary orbit (GEO) and highly elliptical orbits. Starlink is available as a quick filter, alongside the wider catalogue of communication, navigation, weather and Earth-observation satellites.

Detailed satellite information and charts

Info provides available mission descriptions, launch history and technical details. TLE shows the orbital elements, their timestamp and additional orbital parameters. Charts predict speed, altitude, latitude and longitude over one, two or three revolutions. Sign in to save favorites and find them again in Mission Control.

How the tracking data works

Satellite positions are calculated from published Two-Line Element (TLE) orbital data using the SGP4 prediction model. Our orbital file is refreshed daily from Space-Track. The moving globe shows predicted positions for the current time, rather than a direct telemetry or live-camera feed.

The age of a satellite’s own TLE matters as well as the file update time. Check its epoch in the TLE tab. Maneuvers and older elements can reduce prediction accuracy. Descriptions and catalogue information are maintained separately and may be older than the orbital data. An object missing from the current tracking file may still appear in the catalogue.

Does this satellite tracker work on mobile?

Yes. Use the same tracker in a modern phone or tablet browser. Drag and pinch the globe, search for a satellite, and use the Info, TLE, Charts and Filters buttons along the bottom. If loading fails, use Try again or read the information here while your connection recovers.

Can I track the ISS and Starlink?

Use ISS to follow the International Space Station, Hubble for the space telescope, or Starlink to show the constellation. To return to the wider view, choose All satellites. Selecting one satellite gives you its current predicted position and orbital path.

Read our satellite mission guides to learn about Hubble, Landsat 9 and Vanguard 1, then open the same spacecraft in the tracker.

How do upcoming passes work?

Open Passes, choose a nearby city or enter your location, then calculate up to 48 hours ahead. View the predicted start direction, highest elevation, sky path and ground track. Potential visibility considers sunlight and a dark sky; weather, brightness and obstructions are not included. Favorites in the tracker use the same saved satellites as Mission Control.

Is a satellite on the globe visible from where I am?

Not necessarily. Visibility depends on your location, the satellite’s illumination, the time of day and viewing conditions. A satellite shown on the globe should not be assumed visible in your sky.

Is it free, and will my saved satellites stay available?

The tracker is free to use in your browser. Your existing account and saved satellites remain available through Mission Control. Share a selected satellite using Copy link in its information panel.
