Horizon view
Horizon from Fizeau Q
59.6230° S, 136.5921° W · cell 6EET
- Highest horizon point
- Fizeau Q: 10.3° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 330°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 53°, 5.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 5,944 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 29.0° under it at azimuth 176°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:09 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.
