Horizon view
Horizon from Guericke J
10.6186° S, 13.4251° W · cell 21LJT
- Highest horizon point
- Guericke J: 5.8° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 233°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 5°, -0.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,769 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 38.3° high at azimuth 83°, 35.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:20 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.
