How this service works
Satellite orbital elements from CelesTrak by NORAD id or name - epoch, inclination, eccentricity, period, perigee and apogee altitude and orbit class
Output
A JSON object containing a 'satellites' array with full orbital element details for each matched satellite: name, NORAD ID, epoch timestamp, epoch age in hours, inclination in degrees, eccentricity, orbital period in minutes, perigee altitude in km, apogee altitude in km, semi-major axis in km, RAAN in degrees, argument of perigee in degrees, mean anomaly in degrees, B* drag term, and orbit class. Also includes the interpreted query, number of matches, data source attribution, and optional notes.
Example use cases
ISS orbital status check
“Can you pull the current orbital elements for the ISS — specifically its inclination, eccentricity, period, and apogee and perigee altitudes? Its NORAD ID is 25544.”
Satellite reentry risk assessment
“I need the perigee altitude and B* drag term for the satellite with NORAD ID 43013 to assess how close it is to atmospheric reentry.”
Orbit class identification for a satellite
“What orbit class is NORAD satellite 28654 in, and what are its semi-major axis and orbital period?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://saylorinnovations.com/api/space/satellite?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need structured, parsed orbital element data (inclination, eccentricity, period, apogee/perigee, orbit class) for a specific satellite identified by NORAD catalog number, without needing to parse raw TLE text yourself. It is ideal for agents that need machine-readable orbital parameters for downstream calculations or display, rather than raw Two-Line Element sets. Prefer over raw CelesTrak if you want pre-computed altitude and period values.
Side effects
- Unknown NORAD ID returns zero matches with an empty satellites array
- Malformed or non-numeric NORAD ID may return a validation error
- CelesTrak data may be stale if the upstream source has not published recent TLEs, reflected in a high epoch_age_hours value
- Network timeout or upstream CelesTrak unavailability could result in a 5xx error
- Missing required 'norad' query parameter returns an error
