Horizon view
Horizon from Capuanus A
34.6941° S, 25.7034° W · cell 20HDC
- Highest horizon point
- Capuanus A: 22.4° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 218°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 145°, 15.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,754 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.7° high at azimuth 77°, 6.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:07 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.
