MMS 1

MMS 1 is an object launched in 2015 in a highly elliptical orbit, between 10,902 and 171,325 km above the Earth. It completes one orbit every 5,049 minutes, about 0.3 times a day, on a path tilted 73.0° to the equator. That tilt means it can pass over places as far north and south as 73° latitude.
