Horizon view
Horizon from Dorsa Sorby
18.6475° N, 13.6993° E · cell 25QCC
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 3.2° above the horizontal, 34.1 km away at azimuth 248°.
- Farthest visible point
- 109 km away at azimuth 143°, -0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,298 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 57.1° high at azimuth 125°, 57.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 12:43:07 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.
