Horizon view
Horizon from Grimaldi F
3.9058° S, 62.8395° W · cell 15MGF
- Highest horizon point
- Grimaldi F: 6.0° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 325°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 192°, 3.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,664 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 9.8° under it at azimuth 92°. At 2026-10-22 18:54:49 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.
