Horizon view
Horizon from Nearch D
57.1702° S, 38.0856° E · cell 28EDL
- Highest horizon point
- Nearch D: 7.8° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 237°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 208°, 4.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,260 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.2° high at azimuth 1°, 30.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:17:09 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.
