Horizon view
Horizon from Longomontanus A
52.9418° S, 24.1459° W · cell 20FEA
- Highest horizon point
- Longomontanus A: 12.9° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 29°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 116°, 9.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,091 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 18.3° high at azimuth 67°, 6.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:52:20 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.
