Horizon view
Horizon from Glaisher N
13.0867° N, 47.5771° E · cell 29PEA
- Highest horizon point
- Glaisher W: 16.2° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 311°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 319°, 15.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,650 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 73.6° high at azimuth 209°, 61.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:44:53 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.
