Horizon view
Horizon from Chauvenet J
14.2055° S, 139.5128° E · cell 40LKC
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.0° above the horizontal, 38.9 km away at azimuth 1°.
- Farthest visible point
- 47.4 km away at azimuth 343°, 4.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,138 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 8.7° under it at azimuth 266°. At 2026-10-22 12:43:09 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.
