Horizon view
Horizon from Guericke F
12.2582° S, 15.3344° W · cell 21LFR
- Highest horizon point
- Guericke F: 3.3° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 31°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 117°, 1.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,923 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.6° high at azimuth 83°, 34.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:05 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.
