Horizon view
Horizon from Barkla
10.6680° S, 67.2187° E · cell 31LJH
- Highest horizon point
- Barkla: 7.1° above the horizontal, 20.9 km away at azimuth 153°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 6°, 5.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,719 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 58.3° high at azimuth 285°, 52.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:52 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.
