In view from you
Nobody watches SPACEMOBILE-010 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 SPACEMOBILE-010, 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.
Altitude
One reading a day, worked out from the elements Space-Track publishes.
Summary
Over the Irish Sea LIVE
Where is SPACEMOBILE-010?
At 4:09:24 AM UTC SPACEMOBILE-010 was over the Irish Sea (51.9° N, 6.3° W), 533 km up, moving at 7.6 km/s and in the Earth’s shadow.
What is SPACEMOBILE-010?
A BlueBird communications satellite in low Earth orbit, in space since Jun 17, 2026.
Can I see SPACEMOBILE-010?
No, not with the naked eye: no brightness has been published for SPACEMOBILE-010, and nothing here estimates one; the dishes and receivers on the ground use its signals instead.

No operator publishes an ephemeris for SPACEMOBILE-010, so every position here comes from its orbital elements.
In orbit
- Close approaches
- No close approach to SPACEMOBILE-010 has been reported publicly in the past thirty days.
- Losing to drag
- SPACEMOBILE-010 is falling about 10 m a day, read from the last 48 days of samples.
From Space-Track’s public conjunction messages; the latest report was issued Nov 2, 2026, 1:53 PM, 14 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.
