Horizon view
Horizon from Carver M
45.6598° S, 127.4310° E · cell 39GEQ
- Highest horizon point
- Carver M: 7.7° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 137°.
- Farthest visible point
- 104 km away at azimuth 307°, 1.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,540 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 3.5° high at azimuth 272°, 1.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:25 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.
