HULIANWANG DIGUI 240

HULIANWANG DIGUI 240 is an active satellite operated by Guowang (China SatNet) (China), launched on 2026-11-08 from Wenchang Space Launch Site, China on the WHDW 29 launch. As a relatively recent addition to the catalogue, its orbital elements are well-characterised. It orbits in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) at altitudes between 791 km and 911 km with an inclination of 50.0°. It travels at approximately 26,745 km/h (7.43 km/s), completing one full orbit every 102 minutes — that’s roughly 13.93 orbits per day. It is part of the Hulianwang constellation group. At its current altitude, the estimated orbital lifetime before atmospheric re-entry is ~100–500 years. Orbital Radar tracks HULIANWANG DIGUI 240 in real time using the latest two-line element set (TLE) data, providing live position, altitude, speed and orbital path updated continuously.

HULIANWANG DIGUI 240 orbits at an average altitude of 851 km in the upper LEO band, where atmospheric drag is negligible and objects can persist for centuries to millennia. This altitude is used by broadband constellations like OneWeb and by scientific missions requiring stable orbits far from the densest debris bands. Within ±50 km of HULIANWANG DIGUI 240’s average altitude, there are currently 259 active payloads and 2,356 tracked debris or rocket body fragments — notable neighbours include NOAA 20, ONEWEB-0455. With an inclination of 50.0°, HULIANWANG DIGUI 240 passes over latitudes between 50.0°N and 50.0°S, covering the tropical and temperate zones where most of the world’s population resides. Low-to-mid inclination orbits are efficient to reach from equatorial and mid-latitude launch sites. China operates approximately 1,695 active satellites in total, of which 84 share a similar altitude band with HULIANWANG DIGUI 240.
