Horizon view
Horizon from Marinus C
38.0485° S, 73.4731° E · cell 32HGU
- Highest horizon point
- Marinus C: 7.0° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 289°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 90°, 4.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,491 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 40.7° high at azimuth 309°, 34.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:34 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.
