Horizon view
Horizon from Blanchinus K
24.8068° S, 4.9939° E · cell 24JBV
- Highest horizon point
- Blanchinus K: 19.2° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 220°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 16°, 11.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,479 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 50.1° high at azimuth 59°, 38.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:38 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.
