Horizon view
Horizon from de Gasparis F
26.2512° S, 49.4371° W · cell 17JDP
- Highest horizon point
- de Gasparis F: 17.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 263°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 17°, 10.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,645 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 90° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 12.2°. At 2026-10-22 18:05:10 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.
