Horizon view
Horizon from Clavius M
54.7642° S, 11.6334° W · cell 22FCP
- Highest horizon point
- Clavius M: 8.2° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 54°.
- Farthest visible point
- 27.5 km away at azimuth 266°, 4.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 871 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 22.5° high at azimuth 57°, 14.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:23 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.
