Horizon view
Horizon from Alden E
23.4178° S, 112.8052° E · cell 37KFM
- Highest horizon point
- Alden E: 17.8° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 70°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 15°, 12.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,407 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 15.3° high at azimuth 275°, 4.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:37 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.
