Horizon view
Horizon from Almanon A
17.7934° S, 15.3226° E · cell 25KEU
- Highest horizon point
- Almanon A: 13.7° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 357°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 21°, 13.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 16 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.2° high at azimuth 58°, 49.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:27 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.
