Horizon view
Horizon from Obruchev M
40.3521° S, 162.3834° E · cell 43GHM
- Highest horizon point
- Obruchev M: 5.2° above the horizontal, 24.6 km away at azimuth 321°.
- Farthest visible point
- 34.1 km away at azimuth 56°, 4.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,597 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 24.2° under it at azimuth 245°. At 2026-10-22 16:16:48 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.
