Horizon view
Horizon from Brown C
47.5782° S, 17.0037° W · cell 21GEN
- Highest horizon point
- Brown C: 17.6° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 231°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 330°, 10.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 282 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 24.2° high at azimuth 63°, 10.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:23:59 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.
