Horizon view
Horizon from Longomontanus U
51.9850° S, 22.0915° W · cell 20FGB
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 7.4° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 166°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 109°, 2.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 436 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 19.4° high at azimuth 66°, 16.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:23:58 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.
