Horizon view
Horizon from Capella C
5.7609° S, 36.3915° E · cell 28MAP
- Highest horizon point
- Capella C: 7.5° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 98°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 131°, 4.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,039 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 85.2° high at azimuth 25°, 79.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:50 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.
