Horizon view
Horizon from Parrot K
14.0909° S, 1.5831° E · cell 23LGH
- Highest horizon point
- Parrot K: 5.2° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 309°.
- Farthest visible point
- 52.1 km away at azimuth 150°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 959 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 50.6° high at azimuth 74°, 47.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:21 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.
