Horizon view
Horizon from Thebit B
22.2897° S, 6.2790° W · cell 22KGN
- Highest horizon point
- Thebit B: 6.6° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 235°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 0°, 4.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,619 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.5° high at azimuth 70°, 38.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:16 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.
