Horizon view
Horizon from Cabeus B
82.2587° S, 54.5846° W · cell AST
- Highest horizon point
- Cabeus B: 9.8° above the horizontal, 28.5 km away at azimuth 331°.
- Farthest visible point
- 63.5 km away at azimuth 225°, 6.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,948 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.6° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 96° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 7.6°. At 2026-10-22 10:46:36 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
