Horizon view
Horizon from Clavius C
57.7160° S, 14.1921° W · cell 21EGA
- Highest horizon point
- Clavius: 15.5° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 94°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 213°, 13.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,588 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.7° high at azimuth 57°, 5.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:54:43 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.
