Horizon view
Horizon from Lacus Doloris
16.8013° N, 8.6149° E · cell 24QFL
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.1° above the horizontal, 61.6 km away at azimuth 43°.
- Farthest visible point
- 68.2 km away at azimuth 30°, 1.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,274 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 53.2° high at azimuth 116°, 52.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:07 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
