Horizon view
Horizon from Thebit J
22.5487° S, 5.5284° W · cell 22KHN
- Highest horizon point
- Thebit J: 5.6° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 134°.
- Farthest visible point
- 27.5 km away at azimuth 12°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,403 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 43.4° high at azimuth 69°, 39.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:35:43 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.
