Horizon view
Horizon from Piccolomini E
26.1614° S, 31.7842° E · cell 27JEU
- Highest horizon point
- Piccolomini F: 17.6° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 128°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 0°, 16.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,802 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 64.7° high at azimuth 12°, 48.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:04:45 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.
