Horizon view
Horizon from Mariotte P
29.8831° S, 140.0856° W · cell 5JKJ
- Highest horizon point
- Mariotte P: 12.2° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 168°.
- Farthest visible point
- 37.0 km away at azimuth 2°, 4.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 982 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 58.8° under it at azimuth 180°. At 2026-10-22 13:45:08 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.
