Horizon view
Horizon from Gemma Frisius U
34.6050° S, 16.7610° E · cell 25HFU
- Highest horizon point
- Gemma Frisius U: 13.7° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 240°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 297°, 9.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 356 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 51.4° high at azimuth 35°, 39.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:41 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.
