Horizon from Bouvard N
38.4259° S, 76.5096° W · cell 13HJP
- Highest horizon point
- Bouvard N: 8.8° above the horizontal, 24.6 km away at azimuth 45°.
- Farthest visible point
- 40.8 km away at azimuth 129°, 4.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,391 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 20.3° under it at azimuth 109°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:10 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.
