Horizon view
Horizon from Cuvier K
52.2787° S, 10.0247° E · cell 24FGG
- Highest horizon point
- Cuvier K: 6.4° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 12°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 329°, 4.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,108 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.6° high at azimuth 32°, 28.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:30:45 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.
