Horizon view
Horizon from McClure C
14.7272° S, 49.8572° E · cell 29LHH
- Highest horizon point
- McClure C: 3.6° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 35°.
- Farthest visible point
- 32.2 km away at azimuth 326°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 218 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 71.4° high at azimuth 315°, 71.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:29 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.
