Horizon view
Horizon from Geminus E
33.8388° N, 48.5827° E · cell 29SFG
- Highest horizon point
- Geminus E: 7.1° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 254°.
- Farthest visible point
- 69.2 km away at azimuth 8°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 979 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 54.1° high at azimuth 193°, 50.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:04 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.
