Horizon view
Horizon from Scarp
20.2931° N, 30.5860° E · cell 27QDQ
- Highest horizon point
- North Massif: 15.5° above the horizontal, 4.03 km away at azimuth 39°.
- Farthest visible point
- 81.0 km away at azimuth 122°, -0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,457 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.8° high at azimuth 158°, 64.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:57:31 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
