Horizon view
Horizon from Ross H
10.2428° N, 21.8084° E · cell 26PCT
- Highest horizon point
- Ross H: 4.2° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 290°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 27°, 2.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,220 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 67.6° high at azimuth 120°, 65.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:59 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.
