Horizon view
Horizon from Grimaldi C
2.6526° S, 61.5947° W · cell 15MHG
- Highest horizon point
- Grimaldi C: 20.9° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 14°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 39°, 19.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,898 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 8.9° under it at azimuth 92°. At 2026-10-22 18:23:53 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.
