Horizon view
Horizon from Lyman Q
68.1951° S, 156.5052° E · cell 43DDT
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.3° above the horizontal, 41.7 km away at azimuth 161°.
- Farthest visible point
- 88.1 km away at azimuth 243°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 5,832 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 7.9° under it at azimuth 246°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:12 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.
