Horizon view
Horizon from Apianus T
27.7304° S, 9.4460° E · cell 24JGS
- Highest horizon point
- Apianus T: 9.1° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 231°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 284°, 6.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 283 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 52.7° high at azimuth 50°, 45.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:05:13 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.
