Horizon view
Horizon from Julius Caesar
9.1665° N, 15.2105° E · cell 25PEM
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.2° above the horizontal, 38.9 km away at azimuth 219°.
- Farthest visible point
- 61.6 km away at azimuth 348°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 775 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 62.2° high at azimuth 111°, 61.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:14 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.
