Horizon from Chauvenet G
12.6412° S, 141.1262° E · cell 41LBK
- Highest horizon point
- Chauvenet G: 12.4° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 277°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 137°, 8.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,829 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 10.9° under it at azimuth 266°. At 2026-10-22 13:49:07 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.
