Horizon view
Horizon from Pallas B
4.1977° N, 2.6368° W · cell 23NBL
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.9° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 264°.
- Farthest visible point
- 29.4 km away at azimuth 62°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 766 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.8° high at azimuth 96°, 43.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 12:43:08 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.
