Horizon view
Horizon from de Gasparis G
26.9759° S, 49.3862° W · cell 17JDN
- Highest horizon point
- de Gasparis G: 14.2° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 244°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 36°, 9.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 454 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.0° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 89° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 6.3°. At 2026-10-22 19:30:08 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.
