Horizon view
Horizon from Boguslawsky
72.9012° S, 43.2572° E · cell 28CGM
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.1° above the horizontal, 47.4 km away at azimuth 296°.
- Farthest visible point
- 61.6 km away at azimuth 258°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 914 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 18.4° high at azimuth 357°, 15.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:55:00 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.
