Horizon view
Horizon from Fabricius
42.7509° S, 41.8421° E · cell 28GGJ
- Highest horizon point
- Fabricius: 11.3° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 133°.
- Farthest visible point
- 50.2 km away at azimuth 182°, 2.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,411 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.6° high at azimuth 358°, 41.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:54:38 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.
