Horizon from Le Monnier T
25.1660° N, 31.4576° E · cell 27REA
- Highest horizon point
- Le Monnier T: 8.7° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 310°.
- Farthest visible point
- 67.3 km away at azimuth 32°, -0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,506 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 62.3° high at azimuth 162°, 60.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:24 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.
