Horizon view
Horizon from Blancanus E
66.6828° S, 21.8298° W · cell 20DGE
- Highest horizon point
- Blancanus E: 5.3° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 232°.
- Farthest visible point
- 33.2 km away at azimuth 162°, 1.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,060 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 12.4° high at azimuth 63°, 8.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:18 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.
