Horizon view
Horizon from Bettinus E
63.2117° S, 42.3842° W · cell 18EDP
- Highest horizon point
- Bettinus E: 20.2° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 359°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 12°, 19.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 241 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 83° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 17.1°. At 2026-10-22 14:24:53 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.
