Track JILIN-1 SAR-01A live — orbit, position & pass times
JILIN-1 SAR-01A is an Earth-observation satellite imaging and measuring our planet, launched in 2024 and tracked in orbit ever since (NORAD 61240). Cosmik shows its live position in real-time 3D, computed in your browser from current orbital data — free, no login.
It flies a sun-synchronous polar orbit about 514 km up, inclined 97.4° — crossing the equator at the same local solar time every day, which is exactly what consistent daily imaging needs. Like most polar satellites it can pass over your sky around dawn and dusk; it's a faint moving point, best caught with binoculars and a live tracker.
