Horizon view
Horizon from Chang-Ngo
12.6871° S, 2.1650° W · cell 23LCK
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 4.3° above the horizontal, 34.1 km away at azimuth 51°.
- Farthest visible point
- 68.2 km away at azimuth 150°, 0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,544 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.7° high at azimuth 79°, 41.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:36 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.
