Horizon view
Horizon from Innes S
27.5284° N, 117.4228° E · cell 38RCU
- Highest horizon point
- Innes S: 11.5° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 54°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 48°, 11.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,740 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 8.8° high at azimuth 264°, 1.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:51 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.
