Horizon from Taruntius L
5.4568° N, 44.5200° E · cell 29NAM
- Highest horizon point
- Taruntius L: 7.3° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 176°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 106°, 4.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,849 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 81.5° high at azimuth 217°, 76.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:21 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.
