Horizon view
Horizon from Cyrillus A
13.7695° S, 23.1209° E · cell 26LDJ
- Highest horizon point
- Cyrillus A: 19.4° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 217°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 253°, 16.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,378 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 68.4° high at azimuth 57°, 59.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:00 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.
