Horizon view
Horizon from Curtius H
69.3513° S, 7.9862° E · cell 24DEF
- Highest horizon point
- Curtius H: 9.3° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 72°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 189°, 2.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,058 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 18.8° high at azimuth 34°, 12.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:43 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.
