Horizon view
Horizon from McClure
15.3192° S, 50.2369° E · cell 29LHG
- Highest horizon point
- McClure: 7.0° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 50°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 83°, 6.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 374 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 71.0° high at azimuth 316°, 67.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:28 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.
