Horizon from Gay-Lussac H
13.4120° N, 23.3309° W · cell 20PFB
- Highest horizon point
- Gay-Lussac H: 5.5° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 287°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 56°, 3.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,156 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 25.9° high at azimuth 98°, 23.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:49:22 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.
