Horizon view
Horizon from Furnerius R
39.9400° S, 68.9680° E · cell 32HCS
- Highest horizon point
- Furnerius R: 12.9° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 290°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 155°, 6.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,530 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.2° high at azimuth 316°, 30.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:42 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.
