Horizon view
Horizon from Brill
88.2700° S, 93.4100° W · cell AXM
- Highest horizon point
- Brill: 18.1° above the horizontal, 7.92 km away at azimuth 353°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.9 km away at azimuth 142°, 8.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,293 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.1° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 135° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 9.5°. At 2026-10-22 10:51:14 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 400 m at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
