Horizon view
Horizon from Montes Apenninus
19.8714° N, 0.0253° E · cell 23QFK
- Highest horizon point
- Montes Apenninus: 4.7° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 341°.
- Farthest visible point
- 57.8 km away at azimuth 38°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 237 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 44.4° high at azimuth 113°, 43.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 10:51:42 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.
