Horizon view
Horizon from Cuvier C
49.9966° S, 11.7407° E · cell 24FHK
- Highest horizon point
- Cuvier C: 22.0° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 141°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 0°, 17.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,618 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.6° high at azimuth 33°, 17.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:58:01 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.
