Horizon from Arzachel K
18.3777° S, 1.6238° W · cell 23KDC
- Highest horizon point
- Arzachel: 5.2° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 274°.
- Farthest visible point
- 59.7 km away at azimuth 303°, 1.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,606 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.1° high at azimuth 72°, 41.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:49:00 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.
