Horizon view
Horizon from Torricelli
4.7197° S, 28.4037° E · cell 27MAE
- Highest horizon point
- Torricelli: 14.7° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 319°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 255°, 5.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,049 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 79.4° high at azimuth 72°, 73.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:15:17 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.
