Horizon view
Horizon from Babbage E
58.4674° N, 61.6051° W · cell 15VGA
- Highest horizon point
- Babbage D: 13.6° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 260°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 10.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,649 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 6.6° under it at azimuth 82°. At 2026-10-22 15:16:14 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.
