Horizon view
Horizon from Hipparchus J
7.5853° S, 3.1977° E · cell 23MJR
- Highest horizon point
- Hipparchus J: 18.5° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 18°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 28°, 18.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 372 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 55.6° high at azimuth 81°, 39.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:35 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.
