Juno
Live position
This mission operates in deep space β beyond the regime where SGP4 and CelesTrak TLEs apply. Real-time positioning needs NASA's JPL Horizons system, which isn't wired up yet. We track ISS, Tiangong, Hubble, and Chandra in low/high Earth orbit instead.
About this mission
Orbiting Jupiter since 2016, probing beneath the cloud tops to study the gas giant's interior structure, magnetic field, and polar aurora.
This mission has been operating for 5,380 days (14.7 years) β and it's still going.
