Horizon view
Horizon from Banachiewicz B
5.2942° N, 78.9702° E · cell 33NDS
- Highest horizon point
- Banachiewicz B: 11.5° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 198°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 57°, 8.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,358 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 50.3° high at azimuth 261°, 40.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:15 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.
