Horizon view
Horizon from Stella
19.9124° N, 29.7579° E · cell 27QCQ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 8.7° above the horizontal, 9.95 km away at azimuth 0°.
- Farthest visible point
- 40.3 km away at azimuth 65°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,172 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 155°, 61.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:29:13 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.
