Horizon view
Horizon from Doerfel R
71.2380° S, 119.8648° W · cell 8DFU
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 9.3° above the horizontal, 35.1 km away at azimuth 174°.
- Farthest visible point
- 35.1 km away at azimuth 174°, 9.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,546 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 16.0° under it at azimuth 157°. At 2026-10-22 16:16:36 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.
