Horizon view
Horizon from Aristarchus F
21.6673° N, 46.5728° W · cell 17QGM
- Highest horizon point
- Aristarchus F: 1.9° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 106°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 0°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,537 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 5.0° high at azimuth 93°, 3.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:04:54 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.
