Horizon view
Horizon from Janssen E
48.8228° S, 39.7741° E · cell 28FEA
- Highest horizon point
- Janssen E: 13.1° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 68°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 25°, 10.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,604 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.5° high at azimuth 356°, 31.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:39:03 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.
