Horizon view
Horizon from Censorinus Z
3.6785° S, 36.7991° E · cell 28MBR
- Highest horizon point
- Censorinus Z: 4.6° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 211°.
- Farthest visible point
- 37.9 km away at azimuth 10°, 2.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,101 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 86.3° high at azimuth 52°, 84.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:38:53 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.
