Horizon view
Horizon from Regiomontanus
28.2794° S, 1.0861° W · cell 23JDL
- Highest horizon point
- Regiomontanus: 4.4° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 42°.
- Farthest visible point
- 78.7 km away at azimuth 173°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,277 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 41.6° high at azimuth 64°, 38.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:11 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.
