Horizon from Byrgius D
24.0782° S, 67.2814° W · cell 15JBA
- Highest horizon point
- Byrgius D: 10.9° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 8°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 65°, 8.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 687 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 13.7° under it at azimuth 98°. At 2026-10-22 16:16:52 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.
