Horizon from Boussingault A
69.9636° S, 53.8714° E · cell 30DEF
- Highest horizon point
- Boussingault K: 8.5° above the horizontal, 39.8 km away at azimuth 318°.
- Farthest visible point
- 74.9 km away at azimuth 140°, 4.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,327 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.9° high at azimuth 346°, 13.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:19 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.
