Horizon view
Horizon from Foster S
22.6887° N, 143.7525° W · cell 5QFN
- Highest horizon point
- Foster S: 8.3° above the horizontal, 21.8 km away at azimuth 178°.
- Farthest visible point
- 30.3 km away at azimuth 272°, 5.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,285 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 68.6° under it at azimuth 356°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:24 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.
