Horizon view
Horizon from Clausius B
36.0604° S, 40.2375° W · cell 18HEG
- Highest horizon point
- Clausius B: 6.5° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 101°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 347°, 4.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 905 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 10.4° high at azimuth 84°, 4.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:21 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.
