Horizon view
Horizon from Bayer V
47.5570° S, 31.7588° W · cell 19GFC
- Highest horizon point
- Bayer V: 7.5° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 81°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 0°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,079 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 16.1° high at azimuth 74°, 8.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:42:09 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.
