Horizon view
Horizon from Geminus B
34.1419° N, 52.1104° E · cell 30SBM
- Highest horizon point
- Geminus B: 9.3° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 250°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 72°, 8.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 876 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 52.0° high at azimuth 204°, 47.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:17 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.
