Horizon view
Horizon from Parry
7.8834° S, 15.7794° W · cell 21MFA
- Highest horizon point
- Bonpland: 3.2° above the horizontal, 25.6 km away at azimuth 287°.
- Farthest visible point
- 26.5 km away at azimuth 231°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,451 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.7° high at azimuth 86°, 33.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:24:37 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.
