Horizon view
Horizon from Calippus C
39.4346° N, 9.1573° E · cell 24SGT
- Highest horizon point
- Calippus C: 24.2° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 140°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 24°, 4.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,023 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.0° high at azimuth 141°, 17.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:19 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.
