Horizon view
Horizon from Pitiscus D
49.1090° S, 26.5487° E · cell 26FHF
- Highest horizon point
- Pitiscus D: 7.5° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 300°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 42°, 5.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,402 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 41.1° high at azimuth 17°, 35.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:17:16 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.
