Horizon view
Horizon from Doppelmayer J
24.5245° S, 41.2047° W · cell 18JDA
- Highest horizon point
- Doppelmayer J: 15.3° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 169°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 73°, 12.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,028 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 11.3° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 86° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 13.0°. At 2026-10-22 19:04:49 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.
