Horizon from Fauth C
5.2262° N, 18.8484° W · cell 21NBS
- Highest horizon point
- Fauth C: 11.1° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 301°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 9°, 6.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,101 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.8° high at azimuth 95°, 27.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:00:15 UTC, when this page was served.
