Horizon view
Horizon from Marius Q
16.5014° N, 56.2790° W · cell 16QEV
- Highest horizon point
- Marius Q: 13.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 264°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 10.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,537 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 3.2° under it at azimuth 90°. At 2026-10-22 19:43:11 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.
