Horizon from Parkhurst X
32.3081° S, 101.8261° E · cell 36HCL
- Highest horizon point
- Parkhurst X: 14.2° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 137°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 29°, 11.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,402 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 24.1° high at azimuth 285°, 11.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:11 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.
