Landsat orbits in a sun-synchronous polar orbit, declined at 99 degrees (so 9 degrees from 90). It makes about 14 passes over the Earth every day given its orbital parameters but does not pass over the same spot more than once in 16 days.

So essentially, it passes over the Earth roughly north-south many times a day, just about going over the poles and back up again.
