Horizon from Horatio
20.1851° N, 30.7103° E · cell 27QDQ
- Highest horizon point
- South Massif: 13.1° above the horizontal, 9.71 km away at azimuth 226°.
- Farthest visible point
- 76.8 km away at azimuth 122°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,595 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.9° high at azimuth 158°, 63.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:57:31 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
