Horizon view
Horizon from Eratosthenes E
17.9329° N, 10.8928° W · cell 22QBB
- Highest horizon point
- Eratosthenes E: 5.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 269°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 3.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,039 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.2° high at azimuth 107°, 35.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:19 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.
