Horizon view
Horizon from Messala B
37.3703° N, 59.8069° E · cell 30SJR
- Highest horizon point
- Messala B: 20.3° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 114°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 0°, 9.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,855 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.1° high at azimuth 213°, 28.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:54 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.
