Horizon view
Horizon from Lilius S
52.8025° S, 5.8239° E · cell 24FDF
- Highest horizon point
- Lilius S: 13.7° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 67°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 180°, 8.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,761 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 32.3° high at azimuth 38°, 20.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:42 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.
