Horizon view
Horizon from Macrobius T
23.7780° N, 48.5469° E · cell 29QFP
- Highest horizon point
- Macrobius T: 5.9° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 246°.
- Farthest visible point
- 62.5 km away at azimuth 61°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,921 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 63.2° high at azimuth 202°, 61.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:44 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.
