Horizon from Burckhardt C
31.5993° N, 59.0006° E · cell 30RJJ
- Highest horizon point
- Burckhardt C: 16.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 287°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 21°, 12.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,013 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 52.4° high at azimuth 213°, 37.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:08 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.
