Horizon view
Horizon from McClure N
14.1873° S, 52.7099° E · cell 30LBN
- Highest horizon point
- McClure N: 11.5° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 179°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 0°, 8.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,261 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 70.6° high at azimuth 310°, 63.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:08:49 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.
