See where the ISS, Starlink, Hubble and thousands of other satellites are right now, find out when they pass over your location, and follow Voyager, JWST and other deep-space missions with NASA/JPL data.
SpaceTracker.live shows the real-time position of satellites and spacecraft on a live map. Pick the International Space Station, a Starlink satellite, Hubble or any object by name or NORAD ID, and you get its current latitude, longitude, altitude and speed, its orbit path, and the next times it passes over your location. No account or app is needed; it works in any browser on phone or desktop.
Earth satellites are calculated with the standard SGP4 orbit model from public CelesTrak orbital elements, refreshed several times a day. Missions far beyond Earth, such as Voyager 1 and James Webb, use NASA/JPL Horizons ephemerides. The same location you set here also powers the night sky map, Moon phase, planets visible tonight and the rocket launch schedule in your local time.

A catalog number used to identify Earth-orbiting objects. The ISS is 25544 and Hubble is 20580, so a number removes any doubt between similar names such as the many Starlink satellites. Every object tracked by the US Space Force receives one, and it never changes even if the name does.
Earth satellites use orbital elements and the SGP4 model, which is accurate for a few days around the element date. Spacecraft far beyond Earth, such as Voyager and JWST, follow trajectories fitted to radio tracking and published as ephemerides by NASA/JPL Horizons, so a different data source is needed.
A period when an Earth-orbiting satellite is above your geometric horizon. To be seen by eye it must also be sunlit while you are in darkness, which is why the ISS is visible mostly in the hour or two after sunset or before sunrise, and a satellite in Earth’s shadow cannot be seen at all.
