Horizon from Gemma Frisius E
37.3007° S, 12.7186° E · cell 25HBQ
- Highest horizon point
- Gemma Frisius E: 13.1° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 49°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 27°, 12.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,171 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.8° high at azimuth 40°, 34.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:33 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.
