Horizon from Burckhardt B
29.9331° N, 60.2045° E · cell 31RBS
- Highest horizon point
- Burckhardt B: 14.7° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 254°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 162°, 11.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,113 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 52.9° high at azimuth 216°, 40.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:23 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.
