Horizon view
Horizon from Janssen X
42.9281° S, 33.2713° E · cell 27GGT
- Highest horizon point
- Janssen X: 7.6° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 68°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 143°, 5.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,301 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.4° high at azimuth 4°, 42.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:25:54 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.
