Horizon view
Horizon from Letronne B
11.2671° S, 41.3034° W · cell 18LDS
- Highest horizon point
- Letronne B: 10.9° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 188°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 8.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,417 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 9.0° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 90° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 10.1°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:50 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.
