Horizon view
Horizon from Encke C
0.6584° N, 36.4465° W · cell 18NKL
- Highest horizon point
- Encke C: 18.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 296°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 17.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,619 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 15.3° high at azimuth 92°, 1.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:42:11 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.
