Horizon view
Horizon from Furnerius U
35.7525° S, 68.2897° E · cell 32HBB
- Highest horizon point
- Furnerius U: 4.8° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 181°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 306°, 1.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,141 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.8° high at azimuth 314°, 43.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:37 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.
