  Apogee, Perigee & Period

The perigees (point of the orbit closest to the Earth's center of mass) of the satellites range from 414km to 635km, with the average perigee being 522.6km from the Earth, while the apogees (point of the orbit farthest from the Earth's center of mass) of the satellites range from 418km to 697km, with the average apogee being 537.8km from the Earth. The longest period a satellite takes to orbit around the Earth is 98 minutes.

What Spire Does

  Heaviest satellite launched by Spire Global Inc. into space at 4 kg

A commercial satellite, Lemur 2F161 is operated by Spire Global Inc. of USA for the purpose of earth observation (Meteorology and Automatic Identification System (AIS)).

Constructed by Spire Global (USA), it was launched into space using Vega W18 as the launch vehicle from Guiana Space Center on 29 April 2021. Lemur 2F161 orbits around the Earth as a sun-synchronous LEO satellite.

Lemur 2F161 has a launch mass of 4 kg and navigates with the COSPAR ID 2021-034F and NORAD ID 48273.

Taking 95 minutes to orbit the Earth, the satellite's perigee, which is the point of the orbit closest to the Earth's center of mass, is 608km while its apogee, which is the point of the orbit farthest from the Earth's center of mass, is 612km. The eccentricity of the orbit is 2.87E-04 and it orbits at an inclination of 98 degrees to the equatorial plane of the Earth.
