VICTUS NOX, 57861 (Decayed)

Orbit data source: Space-Track

VICTUS NOX, 57861 was a payload satellite owned by USSF SSC (US) in LEO that was launched on Fri, 15 Sep 2023 UTC via an FIREFLY ALPHA launch vehicle from the Air Force Western Test Range (AFWTR). Payload-class satellites include a variety of spacecraft equipped with specific instruments for various scientific and technological missions. These include communications satellites like Starlink; space stations such as the ISS; scientific satellites like the Hubble; Earth observation satellites from companies like Planet Labs, Umbra, and HawkEye 360; GPS; miniature CubeSats for education and research; and military/defense satellites.
