- Highest horizon point
- Jules Verne C: 9.2° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 115°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 254°, 7.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 672 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 16.2° under it at azimuth 257°. At 2026-10-22 14:29:14 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.
