Horizon view
Horizon from Catharina K
20.0573° S, 23.8885° E · cell 26KEA
- Highest horizon point
- Catharina K: 11.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 207°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 344°, 8.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 263 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.8° high at azimuth 38°, 56.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:09:09 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.
