Horizon view
Horizon from Gutenberg C
10.0361° S, 41.1306° E · cell 28LGH
- Highest horizon point
- Gutenberg C: 6.3° above the horizontal, 22.7 km away at azimuth 178°.
- Farthest visible point
- 55.9 km away at azimuth 324°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,476 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 81.2° high at azimuth 351°, 78.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:38:55 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.
