Horizon view
Horizon from Fersman
17.9029° N, 126.0623° W · cell 7QHB
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 3.6° above the horizontal, 74.9 km away at azimuth 258°.
- Farthest visible point
- 78.7 km away at azimuth 268°, 2.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 72 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 69.2° under it at azimuth 39°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:52 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.
