Horizon view
Horizon from Elbow
26.0296° N, 3.5991° E · cell 23RJS
- Highest horizon point
- Mons Hadley Delta: 18.8° above the horizontal, 6.87 km away at azimuth 173°.
- Farthest visible point
- 46.7 km away at azimuth 12°, 0.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,928 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 44.5° high at azimuth 121°, 39.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 10:46:07 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
