Horizon view
Horizon from Maraldi E
17.8682° N, 35.7553° E · cell 27QKM
- Highest horizon point
- Maraldi D: 1.9° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 111°.
- Farthest visible point
- 39.8 km away at azimuth 349°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,089 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 70.4° high at azimuth 168°, 70.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:38:46 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.
