Horizon from Le Monnier S
26.7833° N, 33.7833° E · cell 27RGC
- Highest horizon point
- Le Monnier S: 2.7° above the horizontal, 22.7 km away at azimuth 260°.
- Farthest visible point
- 37.0 km away at azimuth 129°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,304 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.3° high at azimuth 167°, 59.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:19 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.
