Horizon view
Horizon from Ansgarius M
11.2476° S, 78.7928° E · cell 33LDS
- Highest horizon point
- Ansgarius M: 17.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 168°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 54°, 14.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 578 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.7° high at azimuth 281°, 35.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:26 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.
