Horizon view
Horizon from Hertzsprung R
0.2713° S, 132.8037° W · cell 6MJK
- Highest horizon point
- Hertzsprung R: 12.8° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 134°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 20°, 10.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 653 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 78.5° under it at azimuth 98°. At 2026-10-22 21:21:58 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.
