Horizon view
Horizon from Pasteur M
12.4266° S, 105.0772° E · cell 36LGQ
- Highest horizon point
- Pasteur: 16.5° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 339°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 131°, 12.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,184 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 23.1° high at azimuth 274°, 7.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:23 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.
