Horizon from Calippus D
36.3841° N, 11.3105° E · cell 24SJQ
- Highest horizon point
- Calippus D: 8.0° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 352°.
- Farthest visible point
- 25.6 km away at azimuth 326°, 4.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,859 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.3° high at azimuth 142°, 42.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:54:43 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.
