Horizon view
Horizon from Byrgius U
25.8368° S, 67.3642° W · cell 15JBU
- Highest horizon point
- Byrgius U: 7.8° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 100°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 292°, 3.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 136 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 14.3° under it at azimuth 99°. At 2026-10-22 14:33:28 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.
