Horizon view
Horizon from Janssen J
43.4398° S, 36.5847° E · cell 28GBH
- Highest horizon point
- Janssen J: 11.2° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 86°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 200°, 9.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,805 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 47.9° high at azimuth 0°, 38.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:03:16 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.
