Horizon view
Horizon from La Caille K
20.9707° S, 0.5226° E · cell 23KFV
- Highest horizon point
- La Caille K: 2.7° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 294°.
- Farthest visible point
- 60.6 km away at azimuth 202°, 0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 492 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 47.9° high at azimuth 67°, 46.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:51 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.
