In view from you

Nobody watches Starlink 30533 go over, but a receiver still asks whether it is above the horizon. Say where you are and this card answers.

Your position is rounded to about a kilometre and sent only to the Orbinauts API, to find the pass.

No brightness has been published for Starlink 30533, so it is not a naked-eye satellite and no city page carries pass times for it. Nothing here estimates one.

Seeing it

There is nothing to go outside for: it is too faint for the naked eye. What reaches you from it reaches a dish or an antenna, not an eye.

Summary

Over the South China Sea LIVE

Where is Starlink 30533?

At 8:18:01 PM UTC Starlink 30533 was over the South China Sea (18.1° N, 113.7° E), 463 km up, moving at 7.64 km/s and in the Earth’s shadow.

What is Starlink 30533?

A communications satellite in low Earth orbit, in space since Oct 9, 2023.

Can I see Starlink 30533?

No, not with the naked eye: no brightness has been published for Starlink 30533, and nothing here estimates one; the dishes and receivers on the ground use its signals instead.

No operator publishes an ephemeris for Starlink 30533, so every position here comes from its orbital elements.

In orbit

Close approaches
No close approach to Starlink 30533 has been reported publicly in the past thirty days.

From Space-Track’s public conjunction messages; the latest report was issued Nov 11, 2026, 1:30 PM, 2 hours old. Only approaches serious enough to be reported publicly are listed: within three days and, for two bodies near the Earth, closer than a kilometre with a chance of a collision above 1 in 10,000, the level at which NASA moves the ISS.
