Horizon view
Horizon from Bettinus B
63.5413° S, 51.3132° W · cell 17EDH
- Highest horizon point
- Bettinus B: 12.9° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 206°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 11°, 10.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 657 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 2.0° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 89° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 10.4°. At 2026-10-22 19:04:49 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.
