Horizon view
Horizon from Crozier D
13.4595° S, 51.5949° E · cell 29LKJ
- Highest horizon point
- McClure M: 3.2° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 196°.
- Farthest visible point
- 38.9 km away at azimuth 142°, 0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 491 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 71.8° high at azimuth 310°, 71.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:46 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.
