79.1656° S, 165.7583° W · cell 2CFK
- Highest horizon point
- De Forest N: 8.3° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 37°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 283°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 5,547 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 8.4° under it at azimuth 206°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:52 UTC, when this page was served.
