Horizon view
Horizon from Marinus R
38.0210° S, 75.4826° E · cell 32HJU
- Highest horizon point
- Marinus R: 6.1° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 275°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 184°, 5.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,716 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 40.9° high at azimuth 310°, 36.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:55 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.
