Predicted ground track for a 51.6° orbit through the live position, about two revolutions. The line meets the map edge at the date line and continues on the other side.

Once around Earth in 1 h 27 minThe curve is a predicted ground track for a circular 51.6° orbit that passes through the live position, drawn for about two revolutions. Earth turns under the station, so the next pass sits west of the last one. Where the track crosses the date line, the line stops at the map edge and continues at the same latitude on the other edge.
The feed does not say whether the station is ascending or descending, so the track is one of the two directions that fit this latitude. Altitude is about 425 km. Position 26.7° N, 18.0° E.
