Horizon view
Horizon from Licetus D
47.9898° S, 4.3954° E · cell 24GCM
- Highest horizon point
- Licetus D: 13.5° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 32°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 3°, 8.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 255 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.3° high at azimuth 44°, 21.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:38:55 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.
