Horizon view
Horizon from Koval'skiy
21.8916° S, 101.0344° E · cell 36KBD
- Highest horizon point
- Koval'skiy: 6.4° above the horizontal, 21.8 km away at azimuth 254°.
- Farthest visible point
- 30.3 km away at azimuth 79°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,404 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 24.5° high at azimuth 279°, 19.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:05:13 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.
