Horizon view
Horizon from Clavius N
57.5676° S, 16.5030° W · cell 21EEA
- Highest horizon point
- Clavius N: 14.9° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 166°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 0°, 10.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,214 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 18.8° high at azimuth 61°, 6.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:27 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.
