Horizon view
Horizon from Fraunhofer Y
40.1253° S, 62.8124° E · cell 31GDM
- Highest horizon point
- Fraunhofer Y: 10.5° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 298°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 155°, 7.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,786 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.1° high at azimuth 323°, 35.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:42 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.
