Horizon from Pitatus N
31.2043° S, 10.8868° W · cell 22JCC
- Highest horizon point
- Pitatus N: 16.8° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 279°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 339°, 5.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,693 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.9° high at azimuth 67°, 25.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:42:10 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.
