Horizon from Mariotte
28.4567° S, 139.0639° W · cell 6JBR
- Highest horizon point
- Mariotte: 11.3° above the horizontal, 24.6 km away at azimuth 41°.
- Farthest visible point
- 52.1 km away at azimuth 151°, 2.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 118 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 60.2° under it at azimuth 180°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:19 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.
