Horizon from Burckhardt A
30.3992° N, 58.4796° E · cell 30RHG
- Highest horizon point
- Burckhardt A: 9.6° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 208°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.9 km away at azimuth 106°, 5.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,333 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 53.6° high at azimuth 213°, 44.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:12 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.
