Horizon view
Horizon from Fracastorius K
25.4009° S, 34.6753° E · cell 27JHV
- Highest horizon point
- Fracastorius K: 11.1° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 300°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 174°, 5.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,269 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 65.7° high at azimuth 9°, 55.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:15 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.
