- Highest horizon point
- Chauvenet C: 10.2° above the horizontal, 20.9 km away at azimuth 293°.
- Farthest visible point
- 25.6 km away at azimuth 9°, 8.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 935 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 8.1° under it at azimuth 267°. At 2026-10-22 13:45:08 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.
