Horizon view
Horizon from Anders' Earthrise
11.7297° S, 100.4651° E · cell 36LAR
- Highest horizon point
- Anders' Earthrise: 8.7° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 14°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 227°, 5.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 842 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 26.9° high at azimuth 274°, 21.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:47:39 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.
