Horizon view
Horizon from Vallis Baade
45.5533° S, 77.2298° W · cell 13GHE
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 11.2° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 39°.
- Farthest visible point
- 22.7 km away at azimuth 134°, 5.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,044 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 18.3° under it at azimuth 112°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:15 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.
