Horizon view
Horizon from Bettinus A
64.8770° S, 49.0274° W · cell 17DEG
- Highest horizon point
- Bettinus A: 10.4° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 115°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 321°, 8.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,138 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.1° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 87° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 8.7°. At 2026-10-22 19:43:00 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.
