Track FENGYUN 2H live — orbit, position & pass times
FENGYUN 2H is a meteorological satellite feeding the world's weather forecasts, launched in 2018 and tracked in orbit ever since (NORAD 43491). Cosmik shows its live position in real-time 3D, computed in your browser from current orbital data — free, no login.
It sits in geostationary orbit roughly 35,805 km above the equator, completing one orbit per day so it hovers over the same spot on Earth. That's why it never appears to move across the sky — and why it's far too faint for the naked eye. In Cosmik's 3D view you can see it parked on the geostationary ring alongside its neighbors.
