Horizon view
Horizon from Catena Littrow
22.2308° N, 29.6114° E · cell 27QCS
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.4° above the horizontal, 2.61 km away at azimuth 219°.
- Farthest visible point
- 60.9 km away at azimuth 95°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,459 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 64.6° high at azimuth 157°, 61.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:53 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
