Horizon from Piccolomini R
29.3215° S, 35.3344° E · cell 27JJQ
- Highest horizon point
- Piccolomini R: 12.3° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 207°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 126°, 11.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 603 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.9° high at azimuth 7°, 51.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:11 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.
