Horizon view
Horizon from Ritchey D
10.2585° S, 9.2145° E · cell 24LGT
- Highest horizon point
- Ritchey D: 17.5° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 205°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 13.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 186 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.7° high at azimuth 73°, 48.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:27:11 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.
