Horizon view
Horizon from Ross D
12.5740° N, 23.3220° E · cell 26PEA
- Highest horizon point
- Ross D: 17.5° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 264°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 7°, 13.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,981 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 70.3° high at azimuth 134°, 54.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:23:58 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.
