Horizon from Gemma Frisius W
36.9483° S, 13.2846° E · cell 25HCR
- Highest horizon point
- Gemma Frisius W: 23.6° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 65°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 0°, 22.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,596 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.3° high at azimuth 37°, 25.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:11:30 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.
