Where is TIMED
Current Position
The global image on the left
shows where the TIMED spacecraft is presently orbiting over the earth
with solid and dashed lines giving its path just before and after, respectively.
The image on the right shows the opposite side of the earth with the rest
of the 97-minute orbital path.
The exact position along the orbital path and associated time are given
in the upper left corner of the image. The images are updated every ten
minutes, so the TIMED figure will appear to move along the path in steps
roughly the size of that figure.
Past and Future Positions
The position of TIMED at any previous time in the mission, as well as any predicted future, can be displayed via the display tool.
