Horizon view
Horizon from Capella M
4.4694° S, 36.9457° E · cell 28MBQ
- Highest horizon point
- Capella M: 8.9° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 187°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 23°, 5.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,174 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 86.1° high at azimuth 38°, 80.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:29 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.
