Horizon view
Horizon from Pons H
26.9913° S, 22.2514° E · cell 26JDN
- Highest horizon point
- Pons H: 10.8° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 341°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 99°, 5.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 325 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 60.7° high at azimuth 31°, 50.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:54:46 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.
