Horizon view
Horizon from Barocius J
44.9686° S, 21.4114° E · cell 26GCL
- Highest horizon point
- Barocius J: 9.1° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 82°.
- Farthest visible point
- 31.3 km away at azimuth 322°, 3.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,398 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 43.9° high at azimuth 24°, 35.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:42:19 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.
