Horizon view
Horizon from Maestlin R
3.5269° N, 41.4731° W · cell 18NDQ
- Highest horizon point
- Maestlin R: 1.3° above the horizontal, 29.4 km away at azimuth 117°.
- Farthest visible point
- 47.4 km away at azimuth 324°, 0.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,555 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 7.4° high at azimuth 92°, 6.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:10 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.
