Horizon view
Horizon from Sasserides N
38.7214° S, 7.0629° W · cell 22HFP
- Highest horizon point
- Sasserides N: 11.1° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 280°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 11°, 6.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 234 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.4° high at azimuth 59°, 29.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:53 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.
