Horizon view
Horizon from Abel M
32.3763° S, 83.5218° E · cell 33HJL
- Highest horizon point
- Humboldt B: 5.9° above the horizontal, 45.5 km away at azimuth 348°.
- Farthest visible point
- 57.8 km away at azimuth 314°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,308 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.4° high at azimuth 299°, 35.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:37 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.
