Horizon view
Horizon from Taylor E
6.0582° S, 17.1115° E · cell 25MGN
- Highest horizon point
- Taylor E: 13.6° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 35°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 289°, 5.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 286 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 70.7° high at azimuth 77°, 58.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:21:38 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.
