Horizon view
Horizon from Daedalus C
4.1480° S, 178.9073° W · cell 1MBQ
- Highest horizon point
- Daedalus C: 7.3° above the horizontal, 30.3 km away at azimuth 199°.
- Farthest visible point
- 37.0 km away at azimuth 284°, 5.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 867 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 49.7° under it at azimuth 263°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:25 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.
