Horizon view
Horizon from Censorinus A
0.4260° S, 32.9949° E · cell 27MGK
- Highest horizon point
- Censorinus A: 14.2° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 29°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 203°, 11.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,172 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 87.0° high at azimuth 108°, 74.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:21:38 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.
