9.3123° N, 13.6805° E · cell 25PCM
- Highest horizon point
- Julius Caesar J: 5.8° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 48°.
- Farthest visible point
- 118 km away at azimuth 200°, -2.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 865 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.9° high at azimuth 111°, 59.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:03 UTC, when this page was served.
