Horizon view
Horizon from Fechner
58.2462° S, 125.0314° E · cell 39EDV
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 8.0° above the horizontal, 36.0 km away at azimuth 146°.
- Farthest visible point
- 41.7 km away at azimuth 191°, 5.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 842 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 4.3° high at azimuth 274°, 1.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:04:59 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.
