Horizon view
Horizon from Bolyai D
32.6048° S, 128.4475° E · cell 39HFL
- Highest horizon point
- Bolyai D: 11.4° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 253°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 145°, 9.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 342 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.3° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 269° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 10.9°. At 2026-10-22 17:09:13 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.
