Horizon view
Horizon from Burbidge
86.3500° S, 48.6000° E · cell BDQ
- Highest horizon point
- Burbidge: 28.9° above the horizontal, 3.04 km away at azimuth 30°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.2 km away at azimuth 307°, 22.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 974 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 5.0° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 353° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 23.9°. At 2026-10-22 10:46:37 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.
