Horizon view
Horizon from Pitatus Z
28.3822° S, 10.4845° W · cell 22JCF
- Highest horizon point
- Pitatus Z: 3.3° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 119°.
- Farthest visible point
- 69.2 km away at azimuth 185°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,022 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 37.1° high at azimuth 68°, 35.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:41 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.
