The ISS Tracker follows the International Space Station as it orbits Earth in real time. Its live position is plotted on a world map with its ground track, alongside the station's latitude, longitude, altitude and speed — refreshed every few seconds from open orbital data. Free, no sign-up. Free on LK Forge — no sign-up.
This shows where the ISS is now, not when it's visible to you. The station is visible from the ground only around dawn or dusk when it's sunlit and your sky is dark. For visible-pass times at your address, see NASA's Spot the Station.
Open it and the station appears on the map — no account, no key.
The blue dot is the ISS right now, plotted from its live latitude and longitude. The dashed line traces its recent ground track across the map.
Below the map, see the station's exact latitude and longitude, its altitude in kilometres, its orbital speed, and whether it is currently in sunlight or Earth's shadow.
The position refreshes every few seconds, so the dot keeps gliding — the ISS laps the planet about every 90 minutes. Curious what else is up there? Check the Asteroid Tracker.
The International Space Station is a crewed research laboratory orbiting Earth, built and run jointly by NASA, Roscosmos, ESA, JAXA and CSA. It has been continuously occupied since November 2000 — the longest unbroken human presence in space. See the International Space Station's structure & specs.
