Horizon view
Horizon from Gerasimovich R
24.2324° S, 126.3742° W · cell 7JGL
- Highest horizon point
- Gerasimovich R: 6.9° above the horizontal, 27.5 km away at azimuth 133°.
- Farthest visible point
- 29.4 km away at azimuth 104°, 4.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 804 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 61.6° under it at azimuth 153°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:37 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.
