Horizon view
Horizon from McClure M
14.1899° S, 51.2392° E · cell 29LJH
- Highest horizon point
- McClure M: 2.5° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 117°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 281°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 254 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 72.0° high at azimuth 314°, 70.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:45 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.
