Horizon view
Horizon from Denning U
15.8551° S, 138.8516° E · cell 40LJA
- Highest horizon point
- Denning U: 12.4° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 6°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 223°, 5.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 685 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 9.6° under it at azimuth 266°. At 2026-10-22 16:14:48 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.
