Horizon view
Horizon from Pitatus X
28.5015° S, 11.6267° W · cell 22JBF
- Highest horizon point
- Pitatus X: 6.7° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 185°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 22°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,087 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.4° high at azimuth 68°, 34.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:33 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.
