Horizon view
Horizon from Hippalus B
25.2320° S, 30.3924° W · cell 19JGK
- Highest horizon point
- Hippalus: 13.8° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 125°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 67°, 11.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,692 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 18.9° high at azimuth 82°, 7.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:25 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.
