MSC STELLA has not broadcast an AIS position for 10 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the East China Sea, on 29 Oct 2026, 02:39 UTC. It was sailing from FORTUNE STAR to FORTUNE STAR. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

MSC STELLA broadcasts MMSI 352983000 and is registered as IMO 9279989, with call sign H8PA. The MMSI is the radio identifier used by AIS; the IMO number stays with the ship for life and does not change with re-flagging or sale.

MSC STELLA is classified as a cargo vessel registered under the PA flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full cargo fleet at /vessel-type/cargo and full PA flag list at /flag/pa.
