Horizon from Congreve
0.2801° S, 167.8415° W · cell 2MFE
- Highest horizon point
- Congreve: 7.4° above the horizontal, 27.5 km away at azimuth 34°.
- Farthest visible point
- 40.8 km away at azimuth 245°, 3.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,181 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 61.1° under it at azimuth 267°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:59 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.
