Horizon view
Horizon from Casatus
72.6964° S, 30.7476° W · cell 19CFM
- Highest horizon point
- Casatus: 7.3° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 18°.
- Farthest visible point
- 90.0 km away at azimuth 259°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,363 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 6.6° high at azimuth 73°, 2.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:06 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.
