Horizon from Chauvenet U
11.1082° S, 135.4658° E · cell 40LEG
- Highest horizon point
- Chauvenet U: 20.1° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 208°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 16°, 18.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 502 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 5.4° under it at azimuth 268°. At 2026-10-22 13:44:51 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.
