Horizon view
Horizon from Mariotte U
28.1249° S, 143.1885° W · cell 5JFL
- Highest horizon point
- Mariotte U: 14.6° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 160°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 298°, 11.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 313 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 60.5° under it at azimuth 184°. At 2026-10-22 15:38:35 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.
