Horizon view
Horizon from Barnard D
31.3403° S, 89.1739° E · cell 34JGC
- Highest horizon point
- Barnard D: 7.0° above the horizontal, 20.9 km away at azimuth 297°.
- Farthest visible point
- 50.2 km away at azimuth 188°, 0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,866 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.6° high at azimuth 294°, 28.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:48 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.
