Horizon view
Horizon from Mare Spumans
1.3023° N, 65.3033° E · cell 31NGB
- Highest horizon point
- Maclaurin O: 1.6° above the horizontal, 58.8 km away at azimuth 130°.
- Farthest visible point
- 102 km away at azimuth 355°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,834 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 65.6° high at azimuth 264°, 65.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:02 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.
