Horizon view
Horizon from La Caille C
21.2547° S, 1.3422° E · cell 23KGV
- Highest horizon point
- La Caille C: 13.1° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 228°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 22°, 8.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,414 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.5° high at azimuth 66°, 39.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:40 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.
