Horizon view
Horizon from Buisson V
0.7660° S, 111.3527° E · cell 37MEV
- Highest horizon point
- Buisson V: 14.5° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 224°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 14°, 6.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 653 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 17.6° high at azimuth 269°, 4.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:17:02 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.
