Horizon view
Horizon from Daedalus R
7.6548° S, 175.2367° E · cell 45MEA
- Highest horizon point
- Daedalus R: 9.8° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 267°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 119°, 6.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 47 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 48.3° under it at azimuth 259°. At 2026-10-22 21:00:36 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.
