Horizon view
Horizon from Casatus K
74.8049° S, 40.7049° W · cell 18CEV
- Highest horizon point
- Casatus K: 7.0° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 34°.
- Farthest visible point
- 59.7 km away at azimuth 151°, 1.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 277 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is on the skyline at azimuth 81°: part of its disc shows above the terrain (3.8° high, the skyline 3.8°). At 2026-10-22 13:45:12 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.
