Horizon view
Horizon from Casatus A
72.6837° S, 37.6325° W · cell 18CFB
- Highest horizon point
- Casatus A: 11.3° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 321°.
- Farthest visible point
- 118 km away at azimuth 96°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,482 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 4.7° high at azimuth 80°, 4.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:30 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.
