Horizon view
Horizon from Sinus Honoris
11.7195° N, 17.8658° E · cell 25PHQ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 1.5° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 212°.
- Farthest visible point
- 77.7 km away at azimuth 280°, 0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,174 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 63.5° high at azimuth 118°, 64.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:38 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.
