Horizon view
Horizon from Bayer Y
49.2302° S, 35.8690° W · cell 19FBA
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 3.5° above the horizontal, 23.7 km away at azimuth 283°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 265°, 2.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,102 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 12.0° high at azimuth 78°, 10.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:32 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.
