Horizon view
Horizon from Apollonius B
5.8668° N, 57.5980° E · cell 30NGT
- Highest horizon point
- Apollonius B: 6.5° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 276°.
- Farthest visible point
- 29.4 km away at azimuth 4°, 2.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,632 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 70.3° high at azimuth 249°, 65.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:38 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.
