Horizon from Apianus P
25.2854° S, 9.1293° E · cell 24JGV
- Highest horizon point
- Apianus S: 4.1° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 221°.
- Farthest visible point
- 38.9 km away at azimuth 34°, 1.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 149 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 54.1° high at azimuth 52°, 52.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:36 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.
