Horizon view
Horizon from Abel B
36.7202° S, 82.5954° E · cell 33HHF
- Highest horizon point
- Abel B: 8.5° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 33°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 67°, 6.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,720 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.4° high at azimuth 301°, 32.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:17:17 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.
