Horizon view
Horizon from Rimae Römer
26.9834° N, 34.8633° E · cell 27RJC
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.2° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 231°.
- Farthest visible point
- 25.6 km away at azimuth 100°, 0.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 810 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.1° high at azimuth 168°, 61.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:55:00 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.
