Horizon view
Horizon from Sinus Fidei
17.9921° N, 2.0379° E · cell 23QHG
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.1° above the horizontal, 42.6 km away at azimuth 302°.
- Farthest visible point
- 76.8 km away at azimuth 343°, -0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 627 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 47.0° high at azimuth 113°, 46.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:27 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.
