Horizon view
Horizon from Lassell E
18.2357° S, 10.2210° W · cell 22KCT
- Highest horizon point
- Lassell E: 16.5° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 251°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 158°, 9.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,720 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 40.5° high at azimuth 76°, 29.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:24 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.
