Horizon view
Horizon from Sculptured Hills
20.2391° N, 31.0635° E · cell 27QDQ
- Highest horizon point
- Sculptured Hills: 7.3° above the horizontal, 0.71 km away at azimuth 37°.
- Farthest visible point
- 72.7 km away at azimuth 262°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,703 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 67.5° high at azimuth 163°, 64.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:04:59 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.
