Horizon view
Horizon from Pallas X
5.1374° N, 3.2349° W · cell 23NBM
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.2° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 132°.
- Farthest visible point
- 30.3 km away at azimuth 167°, 1.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 520 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.8° high at azimuth 98°, 45.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:04:57 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.
