Horizon view
Horizon from Gemma Frisius B
35.5836° S, 17.2178° E · cell 25HGS
- Highest horizon point
- Gemma Frisius B: 4.7° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 33°.
- Farthest visible point
- 27.5 km away at azimuth 170°, 1.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 247 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 50.7° high at azimuth 34°, 46.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:09:26 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.
