Horizon view
Horizon from Gemma Frisius C
35.7064° S, 18.7408° E · cell 25HHS
- Highest horizon point
- Gemma Frisius C: 6.0° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 28°.
- Farthest visible point
- 32.2 km away at azimuth 309°, 3.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 823 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 51.3° high at azimuth 32°, 45.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:09:25 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.
