Horizon view
Horizon from Fraunhofer N
40.9114° S, 64.0735° E · cell 31GFL
- Highest horizon point
- Fraunhofer N: 7.7° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 168°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 180°, 7.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,274 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 44.0° high at azimuth 322°, 40.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:56 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.
