Horizon view
Horizon from Rimae Kopff
14.6813° S, 88.1048° W · cell 12LEN
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 4.2° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 2°.
- Farthest visible point
- 33.2 km away at azimuth 304°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 742 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 37.2° under it at azimuth 103°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:29 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.
