Horizon view
Horizon from Palisa
9.4668° S, 7.1886° W · cell 22LFJ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 4.5° above the horizontal, 23.7 km away at azimuth 114°.
- Farthest visible point
- 45.5 km away at azimuth 223°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,542 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.3° high at azimuth 82°, 42.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:00:35 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.
