Horizon view
Horizon from Rima Agatharchides
20.3784° S, 28.5643° W · cell 19KJR
- Highest horizon point
- Agatharchides P: 2.2° above the horizontal, 27.5 km away at azimuth 92°.
- Farthest visible point
- 45.5 km away at azimuth 43°, 0.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,080 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.0° high at azimuth 84°, 18.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:55:02 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.
