Horizon view
Horizon from Hypatia M
5.2813° S, 23.4129° E · cell 26MEU
- Highest horizon point
- Hypatia M: 5.4° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 324°.
- Farthest visible point
- 126 km away at azimuth 226°, 0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,446 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 75.9° high at azimuth 74°, 74.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:05:11 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.
