Horizon view
Horizon from Maraldi W
13.1733° N, 36.0903° E · cell 28PAR
- Highest horizon point
- Maraldi W: 3.9° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 300°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 106°, 2.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,122 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 75.2° high at azimuth 170°, 72.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:28 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.
