Horizon view
Horizon from Burnham A
14.8037° S, 7.0310° E · cell 24LDN
- Highest horizon point
- Burnham A: 5.8° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 174°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 0°, 2.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 24 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 57.7° high at azimuth 68°, 53.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:20 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.
