Horizon view
Horizon from Bayer E
51.7664° S, 32.4116° W · cell 19FET
- Highest horizon point
- Bayer E: 9.0° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 312°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 37°, 7.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,646 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 12.8° high at azimuth 76°, 8.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:20 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.
