Horizon view
Horizon from Palisa D
8.6836° S, 6.9072° W · cell 22LGK
- Highest horizon point
- Palisa D: 15.9° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 151°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 67°, 14.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,477 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.8° high at azimuth 83°, 31.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:21:52 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.
