Horizon view
Horizon from Geminus A
31.5118° N, 51.8018° E · cell 29RJD
- Highest horizon point
- Geminus A: 10.1° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 86°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 321°, 8.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,339 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 54.2° high at azimuth 206°, 47.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:20 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.
