Horizon view
Horizon from Mons Dieter
4.9967° N, 120.2977° E · cell 38NFM
- Highest horizon point
- King: 8.5° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 151°.
- Farthest visible point
- 120 km away at azimuth 335°, -0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 351 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 7.2° high at azimuth 268°, 3.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:47:40 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.
