Horizon from Byrgius H
23.7550° S, 62.5977° W · cell 15KGB
- Highest horizon point
- Byrgius H: 10.7° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 169°.
- Farthest visible point
- 49.3 km away at azimuth 309°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 275 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 9.5° under it at azimuth 96°. At 2026-10-22 16:17:12 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.
