Horizon view
Horizon from Guericke K
15.1451° S, 13.3137° W · cell 21LJM
- Highest horizon point
- Guericke K: 0.3° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 111°.
- Farthest visible point
- 53.1 km away at azimuth 297°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,112 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.4° high at azimuth 79°, 39.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:00:38 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.
