Horizon view
Horizon from Clairaut S
47.5121° S, 16.3232° E · cell 25GFC
- Highest horizon point
- Clairaut S: 8.2° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 329°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 80°, 3.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,696 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.9° high at azimuth 30°, 35.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:17:12 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.
