Horizon view
Horizon from Apianus S
25.8082° S, 8.4740° E · cell 24JFU
- Highest horizon point
- Apianus S: 20.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 248°.
- Farthest visible point
- 38.9 km away at azimuth 0°, 1.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 421 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 51.5° high at azimuth 56°, 38.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:25 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.
