Horizon view
Horizon from Nearch G
63.4625° S, 39.9628° E · cell 28EED
- Highest horizon point
- Nearch G: 18.6° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 68°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 96°, 16.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,867 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.9° high at azimuth 358°, 12.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:15:19 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.
