Horizon view
Horizon from Le Verrier S
38.9640° N, 20.6738° W · cell 20SJN
- Highest horizon point
- Le Verrier S: 4.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 86°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 0°, 3.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,528 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 25.3° high at azimuth 115°, 21.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 23:37:03 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.
