Horizon view
Horizon from Hypatia D
3.1545° S, 22.6808° E · cell 26MDB
- Highest horizon point
- Hypatia D: 12.8° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 177°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 58°, 8.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 27 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 75.6° high at azimuth 83°, 65.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:05:09 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.
