Horizon view
Horizon from Cysatus C
63.8859° S, 0.4669° E · cell 23EFH
- Highest horizon point
- Cysatus C: 7.4° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 176°.
- Farthest visible point
- 32.2 km away at azimuth 299°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,938 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 21.7° high at azimuth 41°, 17.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:52 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.
