Horizon view
Horizon from Lowell
12.9655° S, 103.4179° W · cell 10LFE
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 6.7° above the horizontal, 36.0 km away at azimuth 4°.
- Farthest visible point
- 57.8 km away at azimuth 145°, 3.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 856 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 51.9° under it at azimuth 109°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:43 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.
