Horizon view
Horizon from Amici U
8.7517° S, 175.4714° W · cell 1LFK
- Highest horizon point
- Amici U: 5.7° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 59°.
- Farthest visible point
- 56.9 km away at azimuth 328°, 2.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 707 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 52.2° under it at azimuth 256°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:05 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.
