Horizon view
Horizon from Wallace A
19.1773° N, 5.6021° W · cell 22QHD
- Highest horizon point
- Wallace A: 7.7° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 311°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 288°, 7.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,181 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 44.4° high at azimuth 112°, 39.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:22:08 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.
