Horizon view
Horizon from Fraunhofer A
39.5806° S, 61.6102° E · cell 31HCN
- Highest horizon point
- Fraunhofer A: 7.6° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 156°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 319°, 4.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,913 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.9° high at azimuth 327°, 42.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:44:55 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.
