Horizon view
Horizon from Rimae Sirsalis
15.0053° S, 61.3564° W · cell 15LJM
- Highest horizon point
- Sirsalis G: 1.7° above the horizontal, 27.5 km away at azimuth 357°.
- Farthest visible point
- 63.5 km away at azimuth 40°, 0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 557 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 11.6° under it at azimuth 95°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:38 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.
