Horizon view
Horizon from Bettinus F
62.9681° S, 44.0166° W · cell 17EHJ
- Highest horizon point
- Bettinus: 17.8° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 57°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 30°, 17.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,129 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.3° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 85° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 16.5°. At 2026-10-22 14:33:57 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.
