Horizon view
Horizon from Hyginus B
7.6089° N, 5.0713° E · cell 24NBV
- Highest horizon point
- Hyginus B: 9.3° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 191°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 16°, 6.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 838 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 54.7° high at azimuth 103°, 45.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:29 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.
