The BeiDou-2/Compass G5 satellite launched on 24 February 2012 has achieved an initial approximately geostationary orbit. The current sub-satellite east longitude is 57.23 degrees. The intended final orbital slot may be 58.75 degrees, one of the previously announced orbital locations and one used by the BeiDou-1 demonstration system.
