Horizon view
Horizon from Coblentz
38.0932° S, 126.6513° E · cell 39HDD
- Highest horizon point
- Coblentz: 9.6° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 282°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 280°, 9.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,259 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.3° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 271° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 9.1°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:51 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.
