Horizon view
Horizon from Maclaurin G
7.0844° S, 66.9813° E · cell 31MJM
- Highest horizon point
- Maclaurin G: 14.9° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 233°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 11°, 5.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,584 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 59.4° high at azimuth 279°, 49.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:36 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.
