Horizon view
Horizon from Lemaître C
59.5321° S, 145.7504° W · cell 5EDN
- Highest horizon point
- Lemaître C: 16.0° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 174°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 4°, 7.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 6,959 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 29.0° under it at azimuth 185°. At 2026-10-22 16:15:57 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.
