Horizon view
Horizon from Auzout
10.2078° N, 64.0092° E · cell 31PFN
- Highest horizon point
- Auzout: 14.5° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 157°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 21°, 10.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,660 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 63.8° high at azimuth 245°, 52.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 12:24:07 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.
