Horizon view
Horizon from Reiner E
1.8976° N, 49.6439° W · cell 17NDH
- Highest horizon point
- Reiner E: 11.3° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 145°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 0°, 9.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,295 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.8° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 91° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 8.3°. At 2026-10-22 20:06:07 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.
