Horizon view
Horizon from Fracastorius S
19.0323° S, 31.9697° E · cell 27KEG
- Highest horizon point
- Fracastorius S: 19.0° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 142°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 0°, 14.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,221 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 70.9° high at azimuth 23°, 54.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:56 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.
