Horizon view
Horizon from Apollonius X
6.8953° N, 58.1753° E · cell 30NHU
- Highest horizon point
- Apollonius X: 4.8° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 74°.
- Farthest visible point
- 40.8 km away at azimuth 24°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,060 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 68.6° high at azimuth 248°, 66.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:04 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.
