Horizon view
Horizon from Fraunhofer D
43.1590° S, 68.7841° E · cell 32GCN
- Highest horizon point
- Fraunhofer D: 13.7° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 60°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 194°, 4.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,993 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.4° high at azimuth 317°, 32.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:37 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.
