Horizon view
Horizon from Saunder A
4.0121° S, 12.2580° E · cell 25MAR
- Highest horizon point
- Saunder A: 18.6° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 151°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 31°, 13.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 242 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.3° high at azimuth 84°, 54.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:22:10 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.
