Horizon view
Horizon from Daedalus G
6.5692° S, 177.4324° W · cell 1MDN
- Highest horizon point
- Daedalus G: 9.6° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 87°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 201°, 4.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 873 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 54.2° under it at azimuth 258°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:52 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.
