Horizon view
Horizon from Pitatus T
29.4134° S, 11.2217° W · cell 22JBE
- Highest horizon point
- Pitatus T: 14.4° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 221°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 0°, 7.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,175 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.3° high at azimuth 69°, 26.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:42:09 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.
