Horizon view
Horizon from Marinus M
37.4420° S, 80.7730° E · cell 33HFE
- Highest horizon point
- Marinus M: 8.0° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 50°.
- Farthest visible point
- 71.1 km away at azimuth 218°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,207 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.4° high at azimuth 302°, 30.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:59 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.
