Hello!

As the title my question is what I have to set in Cesium to change the maximum distance of visibility of an object from Earth?

If i have a satellite for example and i try to zoom out just the distance of L1 point firstly the satellite disappears and then also the Earth.

Thanks,

Thanks,

An if i try zoom out just a little:

What i want is to see my object again.

Is there a way to not make them disappear?

Thanks

This is controlled by the far plane of the view frustum, which is 500 million meters by default.

The frustum is accessible from the camera.

You may also want to set the model’s minimumPixelSize and maximumScale so that the model remains large enough to be visible at such distances.
