Horizon view
Horizon from Janssen R
48.2801° S, 38.7000° E · cell 28FDB
- Highest horizon point
- Janssen R: 12.0° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 91°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 0°, 3.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 769 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 43.1° high at azimuth 359°, 39.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:08:49 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.
