Horizon view
Horizon from Clairaut B
48.3566° S, 12.6386° E · cell 25FCB
- Highest horizon point
- Clairaut B: 9.3° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 277°.
- Farthest visible point
- 72.0 km away at azimuth 56°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,900 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 37.8° high at azimuth 34°, 36.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:42 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.
