Horizon view
Horizon from Asclepi A
53.0979° S, 23.0142° E · cell 26FEA
- Highest horizon point
- Asclepi A: 4.5° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 147°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 185°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,326 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 37.0° high at azimuth 17°, 33.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:05 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.
