Horizon view
Horizon from Maclaurin B
3.6767° S, 71.4950° E · cell 32MEA
- Highest horizon point
- Maclaurin B: 8.2° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 311°.
- Farthest visible point
- 33.2 km away at azimuth 63°, 3.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 853 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 55.3° high at azimuth 273°, 53.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:28 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.
