Horizon view
Horizon from Longomontanus B
52.9328° S, 20.9153° W · cell 20FHA
- Highest horizon point
- Longomontanus B: 6.0° above the horizontal, 23.7 km away at azimuth 312°.
- Farthest visible point
- 29.4 km away at azimuth 73°, 3.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,047 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.0° high at azimuth 64°, 15.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:59 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.
