Horizon view
Horizon from Bowditch M
26.6701° S, 103.3259° E · cell 36JET
- Highest horizon point
- Bowditch M: 5.0° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 259°.
- Farthest visible point
- 38.9 km away at azimuth 7°, 3.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,621 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 23.7° high at azimuth 281°, 19.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:22 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.
