Horizon view
Horizon from Pitatus C
28.4966° S, 12.5039° W · cell 21JJR
- Highest horizon point
- Pitatus C: 12.8° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 169°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 0°, 6.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,432 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.9° high at azimuth 69°, 28.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:59 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.
