Horizon from Gay-Lussac G
13.8556° N, 18.8852° W · cell 21PBG
- Highest horizon point
- Gay-Lussac G: 9.5° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 10°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 73°, 5.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,487 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 33.5° high at azimuth 101°, 29.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:01:17 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.
