Horizon view
Horizon from Guericke B
14.5872° S, 15.3069° W · cell 21LFN
- Highest horizon point
- Guericke B: 6.6° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 207°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 276°, 4.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,567 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.5° high at azimuth 81°, 31.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:28 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.
