Horizon view
Horizon from Maurolycus P
38.1273° S, 12.6940° E · cell 25HBP
- Highest horizon point
- Maurolycus P: 6.9° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 312°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 142°, 2.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 124 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.2° high at azimuth 39°, 40.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:47 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.
