Horizon view
Horizon from Cannon B
17.5367° N, 80.0503° E · cell 33QFM
- Highest horizon point
- Cannon B: 9.9° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 178°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 232°, 5.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,455 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.1° high at azimuth 249°, 40.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:59 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.
