Horizon from Le Monnier A
26.8324° N, 32.4940° E · cell 27RFC
- Highest horizon point
- Le Monnier A: 9.0° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 125°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 5°, 4.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,698 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 60.7° high at azimuth 163°, 53.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:54:57 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.
