Horizon from Mons Usov
11.9080° N, 63.2636° E · cell 31PEQ
- Highest horizon point
- Mons Usov: 6.8° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 34°.
- Farthest visible point
- 145 km away at azimuth 249°, -1.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,446 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 64.3° high at azimuth 240°, 65.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 10:51:47 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.
