Horizon view
Horizon from De Vries N
21.3611° S, 177.5900° W · cell 1KDQ
- Highest horizon point
- De Vries N: 9.9° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 26°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 141°, 4.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,570 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 47.1° under it at azimuth 243°. At 2026-10-22 13:44:52 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.
