Horizon view
Horizon from Fabricius B
43.5609° S, 44.8503° E · cell 29GCN
- Highest horizon point
- Fabricius A: 18.5° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 187°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 129°, 14.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 912 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 47.6° high at azimuth 353°, 35.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:01 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.
