Horizon view
Horizon from Sasserides A
39.9840° S, 7.1077° W · cell 22HFM
- Highest horizon point
- Sasserides A: 4.3° above the horizontal, 23.7 km away at azimuth 35°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 27°, 3.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 969 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 32.6° high at azimuth 60°, 29.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:18 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.
