46.6555° S, 160.3838° E · cell 43GFD
- Highest horizon point
- Chrétien S: 6.5° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 260°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 75°, 0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,357 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 19.7° under it at azimuth 245°. At 2026-10-22 14:25:25 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.
