Horizon view
Horizon from Saunder S
2.3777° S, 9.7430° E · cell 24MHH
- Highest horizon point
- Lade: 2.2° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 319°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 237°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 153 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 62.7° high at azimuth 88°, 61.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:54:49 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.
