Horizon view
Horizon from Macrobius S
23.2691° N, 49.5932° E · cell 29QGP
- Highest horizon point
- Macrobius S: 6.3° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 329°.
- Farthest visible point
- 50.2 km away at azimuth 192°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,022 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 63.3° high at azimuth 204°, 62.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:36 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.
