Horizon view
Horizon from Hipparchus C
7.4095° S, 8.2100° E · cell 24MFB
- Highest horizon point
- Hipparchus C: 23.9° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 225°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 25°, 20.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,372 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.0° high at azimuth 79°, 42.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:07 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.
