Horizon view
Horizon from Gauricus J
32.3431° S, 11.9952° W · cell 22HAA
- Highest horizon point
- Gauricus J: 11.7° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 222°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 132°, 11.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,021 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 33.2° high at azimuth 68°, 28.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:31 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.
