Horizon view
Horizon from Catena Krafft
14.9136° N, 72.2503° W · cell 14PED
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.8° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 276°.
- Farthest visible point
- 49.3 km away at azimuth 159°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,808 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 21.6° under it at azimuth 85°. At 2026-10-22 13:31:18 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.
