Horizon view
Horizon from Cuvier M
53.4183° S, 10.8522° E · cell 24FHF
- Highest horizon point
- Cuvier M: 14.9° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 105°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 34°, 12.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,576 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.0° high at azimuth 30°, 21.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:42:11 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.
