Horizon view
Horizon from Drebbel N
41.3379° S, 52.5565° W · cell 16GJK
- Highest horizon point
- Drebbel N: 21.4° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 284°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 133°, 14.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 859 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 92° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 17.1°. At 2026-10-22 16:17:06 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.
