ONEWEB-0632

ONEWEB-0632 is an active satellite operated by OneWeb Satellites (United Kingdom), launched on 2023-03-26 from SRI. It orbits in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) at altitudes between 1,200 km and 1,203 km with an inclination of 87.9°. It travels at approximately 26,119 km/h (7.26 km/s), completing one full orbit every 109 minutes — that’s roughly 13.16 orbits per day. Its near-circular orbit (eccentricity close to zero) means it maintains a very consistent altitude throughout each revolution. It is part of the Oneweb constellation group. At its current altitude, the estimated orbital lifetime before atmospheric re-entry is thousands of years. Orbital Radar tracks ONEWEB-0632 in real time using the latest two-line element set (TLE) data, providing live position, altitude, speed and orbital path updated continuously.

ONEWEB-0632 orbits at an average altitude of 1,202 km in the uppermost reaches of Low Earth Orbit. At this altitude, orbital decay is effectively zero without active deorbiting, and coverage footprints are significantly larger than lower LEO, though at the cost of higher latency. Within ±50 km of ONEWEB-0632’s average altitude, there are currently 735 active payloads and 203 tracked debris or rocket body fragments — notable neighbours include ONEWEB-0012, ONEWEB-0010, ONEWEB-0008. With an inclination of 87.9°, ONEWEB-0632 passes over latitudes between 87.9°N and 87.9°S, providing near-global coverage including the polar regions. Polar and near-polar orbits are used for reconnaissance, weather monitoring and Earth-observation missions that need to image every part of the planet. United Kingdom operates approximately 720 active satellites in total, of which 649 share a similar altitude band with ONEWEB-0632.
