Horizon view
Horizon from Cardanus
13.2716° N, 72.4983° W · cell 14PEB
- Highest horizon point
- Cardanus: 8.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 73°.
- Farthest visible point
- 25.6 km away at azimuth 99°, 6.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,941 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 19.5° under it at azimuth 87°. At 2026-10-22 18:35:09 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.
