Horizon view
Horizon from Davy
11.8470° S, 8.1491° W · cell 22LEF
- Highest horizon point
- Davy: 4.1° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 309°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.9 km away at azimuth 323°, 2.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,845 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.2° high at azimuth 81°, 39.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:24 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.
