Horizon view
Horizon from Krafft M
17.7883° N, 75.6095° W · cell 14QAG
- Highest horizon point
- Krafft M: 3.1° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 46°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 0°, 1.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,671 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 23.3° under it at azimuth 84°. At 2026-10-22 16:16:45 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.
