Horizon view
Horizon from Maskelyne D
2.4120° N, 32.4496° E · cell 27NFN
- Highest horizon point
- Maskelyne D: 1.9° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 132°.
- Farthest visible point
- 33.2 km away at azimuth 303°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,321 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 84.3° high at azimuth 132°, 82.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:31 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.
