Horizon view
Horizon from Curtius D
64.6999° S, 8.3550° E · cell 24DFM
- Highest horizon point
- Curtius D: 8.9° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 45°.
- Farthest visible point
- 31.3 km away at azimuth 186°, 6.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,589 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 22.4° high at azimuth 36°, 13.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:39 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.
