Horizon view
Horizon from Goclenius U
9.3310° S, 50.1502° E · cell 29LHP
- Highest horizon point
- Goclenius U: 2.5° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 54°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 159°, 0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,797 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 77.0° high at azimuth 307°, 75.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:24:19 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.
