Horizon view
Horizon from Lepaute D
34.3556° S, 36.3003° W · cell 18HJJ
- Highest horizon point
- Lepaute D: 8.1° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 272°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 179°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,653 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 14.8° high at azimuth 81°, 9.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:28 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.
