Horizon view
Horizon from Ansgarius
12.9235° S, 79.7231° E · cell 33LEQ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.1° above the horizontal, 47.4 km away at azimuth 273°.
- Farthest visible point
- 51.2 km away at azimuth 34°, 4.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,567 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 50.0° high at azimuth 284°, 45.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:02 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.
