Horizon from Parry C
6.8605° S, 12.7419° W · cell 21MJB
- Highest horizon point
- Parry C: 3.1° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 229°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 1.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,412 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.1° high at azimuth 87°, 35.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:04:57 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.
