Horizon view
Horizon from Hecataeus B
19.3798° S, 75.6228° E · cell 32KKB
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.6° above the horizontal, 35.1 km away at azimuth 92°.
- Farthest visible point
- 60.6 km away at azimuth 278°, 1.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,501 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 51.7° high at azimuth 294°, 49.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:55 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.
