LEDSAT ground station

LEDSAT re-entered the atmosphere in October 2025 and is no longer in orbit, so live tracking is no longer available. This page records the orbit it flew.

Orbit

LEDSAT operated in a Sun-Synchronous Orbit (SSO) at roughly 550 km altitude, with a Local Time of the Descending Node (LTDN) of about 10:30. It was catalogued as NORAD ID 49069; the historical elements remain on Celestrak.

Ground segment

The spacecraft was operated from the S5Lab ground station in Rome, using Yagi aerials with tracking capability to maximise the useful time of each pass.
