Horizon view
Horizon from Lacus Perseverantiae
7.8377° N, 61.9349° E · cell 31NCK
- Highest horizon point
- Auzout L: 6.6° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 307°.
- Farthest visible point
- 74.9 km away at azimuth 101°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,267 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 67.2° high at azimuth 247°, 67.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:17 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.
