Horizon view
Horizon from Tisserand
21.4131° N, 48.1666° E · cell 29QFL
- Highest horizon point
- Tisserand: 10.0° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 270°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 30°, 6.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,643 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 65.8° high at azimuth 201°, 59.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:07 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.
